I think the EntityDecl.dtd file should read:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?> <!ENTITY % flName " firstName, lastName " > <!ELEMENT firstName (#PCDATA) > <!ELEMENT lastName (#PCDATA) >
A victim of the cut-n-paste demons, eh?
I did some searching in Bugzilla, but found no hits. In fact, I kept getting "zarro boogs found" as a result. This leaves me to think that:
1) I can't figure out the web page form to specify a Buzilla search criteria. 2) There really isn't such a bug submitted.
My money is on #1, since it was my first attempt at doing so. Can anyone verify if #2 is true?
I'd be happy to submit the bug report, if you want me to.
I'd also be happy to work on implementing a fix, but I'm not sure if I'm a good choice -- it's likely I'd introduce more bugs. After all, I'm still a noob. :-)
Let me know what you think.

Hi Bob,
This would seem bug in the current version of Xerces-j. The following is the description.
"When parsing , with the XMLGrammarPreparser parser, a DTD which include external entities which define internal PEReferences; the PEReferences are not recognized as such. The XMLDTDScannerImpl
ElementDecl scanner fails to recognize such a case."
This is easily reproduce with the xni.XMLGramarBuilder example.
input.dtd -------------
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!ENTITY % entDec SYSTEM "EntityDecl.dtd" >
%entDec; <!ELEMENT nameList (name, alias?)+> <!ELEMENT name (%flName;) > <!ELEMENT alias (%flName;) >
EntityDecl ________
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!ENTITY % entDec SYSTEM "EntityDecl.dtd" >
%entDec; <!ELEMENT nameList (name, alias?)+> <!ELEMENT name (%flName;) > <!ELEMENT alias (%flName;) >
Run the following:
xni.XMLGrammarBuilder -d input.dtd
Will caulse the following Error:
