Hi Bruce,

XMLTask is using JAXP to read the XML document, and the process of parsing actually adds these default attributes in. Then (obviously) they get written out. I don't know of a means to turn this function off. I guess it may be possible to do this in a different underlying parser library.

So if you want to keep the DTD reference in your document, the easiest way around this is to reference a 'dummy' local copy of the DTD via <xmlcatalog>. That way the DTD reference remains for your final application, but during the XMLTask work the 'proper' DTD doesn't get loaded/referred to. Does that make sense ?

If I'm piecing together an xml file using insert but the final result always includes default options defined in the dtd. Is there a way not to have these included? I tried expandProperties="false" but it failed to work. Obviously removing the dtd from the xml files solves this but I would like to keep the dtd reference in the xml file.
 
thanks,
