Thanks to the parser writers! Like Peter, I am working on a project where we are building an XML editing application in Java and therefore need access to the content model for determining allowable content. The msxml parser currently doesn't make its internal representation of the DTD public -- Chris Lovett suggested using the XML-Data Schemas instead of trying to access the DTD info directly. When one wants access to the DTD, what is the recommended method? Is there any concensus? Do any of the available parsers (Lark, MSXML, NXP, PaxSyn, etc.) plan on offering access to the DTD through their APIs at some point? Standardization of APIs (a la XAPI-J) would make life better as well -- are people working on this (Lark? MSXML? etc?)? Thanks in advance, Matt -- ****************************************************************** Matt Jones jones@n... http://www.nceas.ucsb.edu/ Ph: 805-892-2508 Fax: 805-892-2510 National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) ****************************************************************** Peter Murray-Rust wrote: > JUMBO wants to retrieve the DTD information for its authoring process, > and > needs the ELEMENT and ATTLIST information.
