[jdom-interest] String tree to DOM?

[Vic Cekvenich]

I am using a payment processing service and I create a Document using 
elements to send them a XML Document as a String via API.
They return a string... representation of an XML document.

Is there a way that I can create a new Documment out of this String, 
without having to parse it?
(it's not an elment, the entire tree of a dcoument is there)

ps: is there more stuff coming out of jDom or is it parked?
