Here's how we did away with this problem:
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = (DocumentBuilderFactory)new
org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl();
factory.setAttribute("http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-exter
nal-dtd", Boolean.FALSE);

> Hi,
> I'm using the parser to parse html as well as xml
> documents. When I read in an html file, the parser is
> generating the following error on
> me: java.io.FileNotFoundException, and the file that it is
> trying to open is
> http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-html-in-> xml/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd.
> I've checked the w3c site, and
> this file does not exist at that location. I tried turning
> validation off on the parser using the setFeature method, but
> that did not solve any problems. I could really use some help
> on this one. I'm running close to a deadline.

> Thanks in advance
