No. Expat is a "low level" parser so you trade in
more work for more speed and flexibility.
You will have to track tag starts and endings
yourself (or use a DOM parser instead).

Expat has to report all the whitespace since it by
default is significant. Before throwing the whitespace
away make sure the language/schema you parse tells you to.

Are you implementing your own or a known format?
