Hi all,
Did some tests to no avail. To restate, I want to read an XML document for which I have no DTD. I don't want to validate against the DTD, but I do want to report errors on non-standard built in entity references (like é).
So,
If I have no DTD in the XML all is ok, references are reported if I have a DTD in the XML and validate, its all ok. (when DTD available) if i have DTD and don't validate/load external DTD, there are no reports on entity references.
I can add an EntityResolver, but that can only redirect to an exisitng DTD. When redirecting to an empty DTD I get messages on undefined elements (it 'finds' a DTD but elements in the XML are not defined in there.)
I tried adding a LexicalHandler and not validate (otherwise, see above), but start-/endEntity is not called in that case.
So one option would be to have an 'open' DTD definition with something like
<!ELEMENT Root ANY>
Which seems also not possible as all elements must be defined in the DTD.
Anything I overlooked or other ideas? Otherwise giving up on this...

What you are actually saying is that there is no way you can force this to be an error, unless having a processor that would be willing to do so?You could supply your own EntityResolver and catch it there, or a LexicalHandler, or have a look at 'Lexev' ( http://andrewjwelch.com/lexev/) and handle it in xslt.
