Over the past few months I have developed a Fortran90 XML parser.

Its main features are:

* An almost fully functional SAX-like interface.
* A very convenient XPath-inspired interface for direct access to
  document sections.
* Detection of malformed documents, with reporting of the exact location
  of the error.
* Support for handling numerical datasets.
* Tutorial and reference documentation available.
* Written in the F subset of Fortran.
* Freely available under the BSD license.

You can find more about it and download the code from:

There are two other projects (that I know of) aimed at parsing XML in
Fortran: those of Mart Rentmeester and Arjen Markus. Up to this point
the three projects have progressed independently.
