Entity resolution

my application uses SAX to process XML documents. i don't have a
user-defined entity resolver installed. isn't the parser supposed to reject
text like this?

&abc;

if i haven't defined it in a DTD? my documents don't have DTD
specifications. all they have are validly nested tags and these entities.

Herb....

Nahh it sounds correct to me. If you are not validating then only syntax is
checked. The &abc; entity is correct syntax.
