Not in pure XSLT, this information isn't passed by the XML parser to the XSLT processor. However, Andrew Welch has produced some tools that could help, see http://markmail.org/message/xjs5apabmaamphnt Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/ > > For example, say the source xml document looks something like this: > > <!DOCTYPE mydoctype [ > <!ENTITY mynote "this is a special note" > ]> <mydoctype> > <specialnote/> > </mydoctype> > > > I can't use the unparsed-entity-uri function, because I don't > know the name of the entity: It's never used by name. > Instead, if I come across the 'specialnote" element, I want > to substitute the value stored in the 'mynote' entity. > > Can I fetch the value of the "mynote" entity or must it be > used (or name known) in order to access it?
