Is there something in SAX that gives the information in the <!DOCTYPE> declaration to the application? I've scratched my head over DTDHandler http://www.megginson.com/SAX/javadoc/org.xml.sax.DTDHandler.html but I haven't found anything that looks like it there. I've looked at the source code for XMLNorm/XMLWriter, and it doesn't look like it is anywhere there. The top level element is used as the name. But when looking at the original announcement for XMLNorm: http://www.lists.ic.ac.uk/hypermail/xml-dev/xml-dev-Jul-1999/0346.html there's a link to an XML document that has a DOCTYPE with both a PUBLIC identifier and a SYSTEM identifier http://home.sprynet.com/~dmeggins/texts/darkness/darkness.xml Or maybe the above document is _before_ processing with XMLNorm...? Hm... searches on the net also gave me some discussions from January 1998, that seems to indicate that a <!DOCTYPE> declaration isn't good enough as a document type identifier, but there didn't seem to be any conclusions (at least I didn't find them. What I need the document type for, is to set the appropriate DocumentHandler in the parser. I'm assuming that this is something others would like to do. If there is no DOCTYPE information available, how is it done? xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers. To post, mailto:xml-dev@i...
