Do you mean that character and entity references are replaced? Or something different? In the first case, it's obviously not possible unless the parser reads the DTD (if not, then all attributes are treated as CDATA). [I'm assuming that by "data" you mean attribute values, since you mention that in your Subject. "data" might be a bad choice of term in this case, as to many - particularly to those who use DSSSL -it means all the character content of an element.] -- xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
