Abstract
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method of analyzing an extensible markup language (XML) file, generating structural information for the XML file, and incorporating the structural information into the XML file. The structural information may correspond to a hierarchy of the file and may further include size information corresponding to elements of the file. In such manner, the structural information may be transmitted with the XML file and used to aid a receiver of the file in parsing. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
