Re: What does the word 'parse' meant when you do a XML parse...

Basically what I was asking about is what is the true definition of the 'parse' when using XML parsing. I thought it had to do with data conversion, like something with the quote or double quote for example. But Chris pointed out a dictionary, I found better definition there at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parse . So, now I know it basically is about breaking up the XML tags into something like array or whatever the container is that XML get broken up into.
