DocType Question

I have a document that does not have a DOCTYPE definition line in it but
want to associate a DTD with this document before I parse the document. How
can I do this?

Thanks,
Scott Greenough

You can't without custom code. And it might be a little complicated
so I won't go into the details here. But the basic idea is that you
intercept the startElement and the "fake" the DTD callbacks in order
to populate the grammar.
