accessing the encoding of a document

[Keith Fernandez <ke...@primus.com>]

Where is this value stored? I want access to the encoding value - specified
in the first line of an XML document like: <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
Is it available via the root node of the (parsed) document?

Thanks -

The XML Specs still doesn't say anything about its access. A non-standard way
of accessing is through DOM_XMLDecl type objects. The creation of such objects
can be set in DOMParser (before parsing the document) via
setToCreateXMLDeclTypeNode(true);
