The invention relates to a method and a system ( 101 ) for providing random access to documents, in particular large XML documents. Thus, the invention addresses the problem that current XML processors either can not provide random access to large XML documents, or that they can provide random access, however at a speed far to slow to be user friendly. The method proposes to generate Random Access Points to a document and to store these Random Access Points in a separate storage means ( 130 ). These Random Access Points indicate the start and/or end of fragments of the document being parsed Store Doc and provide a means by which fragments of the document can be accessed randomly.
