hi,

newbie here.

The parser is the software that interprets the xml code.

Compare it with Word - Word document

The parser converts (or helps convert) the XML data file into data structures in memory which can then be manipulated and displayed via webpage or used to generate reports, etc.

What language do you use? We can probably tell you what parser to use.
