Thanks for your (infortunate) answer.

Does anybody know how I could this, then :
Have an file with my entities included (by a parameter file entity) in my 
result XML doc ?
Would something like this work, for example :
<!DOCTYPE test SYSTEM "test.dtd" [
  <!ENTITY % myent PUBLIC "-//ME//MYENT//EN" "myent.ent">
  %myent;
]>

Thanks in advance
