I think you misunderstood.  I know what those items are, and how they
are used.  What I am asking is that once I have a DOM Document object:

<code>
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(uri);

Document doc = parser.getDocument();
</code>

How can I get from the Document object (org.w3c.dom.Document) the
version, encoding and standalone state of the docment?  In other words
is there a way with DOM's Java binding to get access to the XML
declaration?  I can't find one, which seems ridiculous, so I wanted to
verify this.  Certainly I could parse the document myself to get that,
but that's sort of silly....
