Hi, I don't know the DTD problem/ID problem (or the w3c ID lookup for that matter), so I may be barking up the whong tree ...
Can you use the DOMDocumentFactory, then your nodes will be DOM4j and W3Cdom nodes, so the cast will not be a problem If your document is readOnly - Can you attact an ElementHandler when you parse the document, and build up a map of ID->element for the lookup You could do the same with a visitor after the document has been read, or a custom document factory/element that maintains the Ids Mike > -----Original Message----- > From: Kansal Sumitabh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday 27 March 2003 22:40 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [dom4j-user] casting org.w3c.dom.Node to org.dom4j.Node > > > Hello, > > I need fast ID lookup on my xml files, but my xml file > needs to use a DTD file.
