Almost everyone has experience with this issue and it is not a parser "bug". If you declare a DTD in your XML instance, then the parser *must* resolve it. This needs to happen even if you set the parser to be non-validating. Every XML framework needs to employ a "Catalog Entity Resolver", i.e. http://xml.apache.org/commons/components/resolver/ (Please do not send HTML-formatted email to mailing lists.) --David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
