Documentation harmed in this endeavor:
There are a range of options from primitive SAX parsers through to "schema aware" parsers that seem to care more about being correct than the data itself :-)
The big weakness with all these technologies right now is error reporting - it is very tricky to tell what specifically went wrong, where, when and why.
The XML Developers Guide makes for some good background reading - in addition to being interesting (it is aimed at developers creating "bindings" for new schemas) it offers a few clues on what can go wrong.
