Hello there,

The following will be my output XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE mybook PUBLIC "-//ATM//DTD MYBOOK//EN" "mybook.dtd"[
   <!ENTITY G2007040101 SYSTEM "G2007040101.gif" NDATA GIF>
   <!ENTITY G2007040102 SYSTEM "G2007040102.gif" NDATA GIF>
]>
<mybook>
   .......
</mybook>
Using <xsl:output>, I know how to output PUBLIC and SYSTEM. The thing is I do not know how to output the entity declaration in the xml. I.e.: how to output the following: <!ENTITY G2007040101 SYSTEM "G2007040101.tif" NDATA TIF> in the XML.

I searched XSLT spec 1.0, 2.0 and this list-archive but I did not find a solution yet. So I post it here.

There's no keyword or anything that will help you here. However, you can achieve it with xsl:character-maps in XSLT 2.0. A while ago I explained something like that on the Saxon list how to do so, but that was about how to extend an existing doctype, I believe. In a previous post (just one before this) I explained how to use xsl:character-maps to do things not normally achieved with basic syntax.
