how to not expand attribute entity references?

[Malcolm MacLeod]

Hi, im using the sax2reader to parse an xml document.

When my startElement() function gets called and i read teh attributes in my 
program entity references are being expanded.

eg /
<Foo Bar="&copy;"> 

is coming through as a copyright symbol, i need it to come through as is, How 
can i disable this expansion?

I have seen this option in the dom parser but I can't find it for the sax 
parser.

Please help, thanks.
