When I parse xml with an entity refererence in an attribute to a DOM
tree, I am not able to serialize the xml back to the original content.
The question of retaining this references has been asked before in
this forum and I am aware that this is not supported by xerces.
But it is possble to check by myself for the existence of such
entities? In other words : When I use a contenthandler, how could I
check for entities that are declared within attributes?
Example xml where the salary attribute has the entity &one which I
want to detect in the parsing.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE personnel SYSTEM "personal.dtd" [
<!ENTITY name "Big">
<!ENTITY one "1">
]>
<person id="Big.Boss" salary="&one;">
<name><family>Boss</family> <given>&name;</given></name>
<email>[email protected]</email>
</person>
</personnel>
