Hi,

Is there a way to get the current filename and line number from within the start element callback (or any of the callbacks for that matter) i.e. is there a global value or can this be retrieved from an attribute method. I looked through some of the SAX examples but could not find if filename and line number are avail from the start element callback.
Yes. You will need to override the setDocumentLocator() member function in ContentHandler or DocumentHandler. The parser will call that function with a Locator instance, which you need to save. When you want information about the entity, you can call the member functions of the Locator class using the instance the parser supplied.
