doctype?
I'm not sure if I should be consulting Xerces, Xalan, or a beer.
I've got a DOM tree with a doctype on it.
I want to serialize it.
I use the usual TraX call. No doctype lands in the output. I'm very
carefully using Xerces for the DOM and Xalan for TraX.
Am I just in the land of RTfM?

Thanks. LSSerializer did the job. I don't like doctypes, but I'm stuck with
some.

Good catch. I meant to post a link to setOutputProperty():

True, thanks. But I assumed the OP had already written one, as he wrote:

I might be wrong, but the first of the three references you gave is
probably not related to specifying the DOCTYPE.

A DOCTYPE can be specified programmatically [1][2][3], so you don't need to
write a stylesheet. Note that either approach only works if the
DocumentType node has no internal subset. If it has one it will still be
lost if you do this.
Thanks.

You can set a DOCTYPE from XSLT using xsl:output/@doctype-system and
xsl:output/@doctype-public:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output doctype-public="eins zwei drei"
doctype-system="http://eins.de/zwei/drei"/>
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Benson,
I expect the response that you would get from the Xalan folks is that the
DOCTYPE isn't part of the data model [1][2] so doesn't appear in the result
of the transform. I understand that the identity transformer is supposed to
behave like following stylesheet snippet:
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
and that only includes nodes in the XPath data model. I think some folks
believe the JAXP equivalent should copy everything, not just what's
representable in the data model, but apparently Xalan and perhaps other
XSLT processors do not do that.
You could try another API like the LSSerializer [3] which will serialize
the full content of the DOM.
Thanks.

Benson,
I expect the response that you would get from the Xalan folks is that the
DOCTYPE isn't part of the data model [1][2] so doesn't appear in the result
of the transform. I understand that the identity transformer is supposed to
behave like following stylesheet snippet:
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
and that only includes nodes in the XPath data model. I think some folks
believe the JAXP equivalent should copy everything, not just what's
representable in the data model, but apparently Xalan and perhaps other
XSLT processors do not do that.
