XML parsing without startelement

Hi,

I'm looking at the examples on http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/dist/1.1/docs/tutorial/sax/2a_echo.html

I want to parse an XML file that has just events, like this:
==>start of file
<event type="1"/>
<event type="2"/>
<method type="warning"/>
<===end of file

so there are no <start> and </start> -tags.
Using the examples on that java site I get the following fatal error:

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Illegal character at end of document, &#x3c;.
at org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2.fatal(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2.fatal(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2.parseInternal(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2.parse(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.crimson.parser.XMLReaderImpl.parse(Unknown Source)
at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.parse(Unknown Source)
at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.parse(Unknown Source)



It should be possible, right?
