Nope. If you have a DOCTYPE with either an internal or external DTD, Xerces validates against the DTD.


Officially (officiously?), the folks who designed schemas expect us to stop
using entities and migrate to some other variety of macro/external-data
reference.

Not their problem, eh?

It's mine. A number of XML editors have started supporting this no concept, raising user expectations this is a valid combination.
