RE: Declaring an entity for FOP to see
Hi, I think that the public declaration is missing in you !DOCTYPE The right syntax should be: !DOCTYPE root_element PUBLIC DTD_name DTD_URI [ your own entities here ] Pascal -Message d'origine- De : Luke Shannon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : mercredi 12 janvier 2005 23:34 This is helpful. Thank you. - Original Message - From: Web Maestro Clay [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I suspect it's because you've begin the ENTITY declaration with '!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [...'

I think you should be able to do this: ?xml version=1.0? !DOCTYPE stylesheet [ !ENTITY nbsp '#160;' ] DOCTYPE declarations and DTDs are not aware of namespaces. Elements names used there have to be used in the exact same lexical form as they are used in the document. If the document element of the XML is written as xsl:stylesheet, then the DOCTYPE has to use xsl:stylesheet also, regardless of the namespace binding of the prefix xsl.

Re: Declaring an entity for FOP to see
My xsl is a style sheet as well: ?xml version=1.0? !DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ !ENTITY nbsp '#160;' ] xsl:stylesheet version=1.0 xmlns:xsl=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform; xmlns:msxsl=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format; exclude-result-prefixes=fo As for the input comment, sorry for not being clearer about this. Basically the java program I am working with has a method to process an XSL file (the same one I am declaring the entity in above). It returns a string containing all the output from the XSL. It is this string that I am using to create my input source for FOP. At present FOP is throwing exceptions because of bad html or undeclared entities. As it turns out nbsp was not the only concern. The string I receive back also contains div tags which are missing the quotes around the names of style classes they are applying. I was thinking tidy would be the best way to resolve these issues once and for all.
