Re: Stopping Saxon searching for an external DTD

Answering my own question:
I've read through the relevant bits of the Saxon and SAX source (not
something someone with < 2 months Java experience should do - i've
got a funny pain in my right eye now) and it turns out it's the way
the SAX interface is implemented. SAX demands that Public/System IDs
are resolved (but not downloaded) which obviosuly doesn't happen
without a TCP/IP connection to DNS server. All I have to do is find
out where it's called in Saxon and turn it off...

(this is probably related to: must be a trivial problem)
I'm writing a simple fragment of XSL to process Moreover news files.
I'm using Saxon 5.5 through JBindery on a Mac at the moment, but it
will eventually move to 5.5 running on an NT machine.
I want to grab the news every 30 minutes or so, process it and cache
it, to reduce server load. I'm at home at the moment, on a dialup,
and I notice that attempting to transform the moreover file, which
begins with the DOCTYPE declaration
<!DOCTYPE moreovernews SYSTEM
"http://p.moreover.com/xml_dtds/moreovernews.dtd">
fails when I'm offline, but not when I'm online.
I'm not actually clear what's going on here. Is Saxon actually
attempting to grab the DTD or is Java having a problem because it
thinks the URL should be resolved before proceeding? (In which case,
why doesn't it crash like a normal Java app on a Mac...)
Or is it something else?
As I'm confident that Moreover files are valid, and my XSL doesn't
care, is there any way to turn this feature off?
