Newbie - Digester/Sax Parsing Error

[Trevor Griffiths <tg...@tcmg.com>]

Hi,

I'm doing some simple tests and set up with Digester to get familiar with it
before starting in for real.

The following xml produces a java.net.MalformedURLException error when
digester.parse attempts to parse it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE request SYSTEM "C:\Documents and
Settings\tgriffiths\Desktop\DigesterTest\digesterTest.dtd">
<request>
	<fruit>orange</fruit>
	<veg>carrot</veg>
</request>


I've tried it with and without the DOCTYPE definition. I have
digestor.setValidating(false).

I haven't used digester.register.

Any suggestions, corrections, etc.

Thanks

Trev...

You have to prefix the path to your DTD with "file:" to make it a valid URL.
