Expansion of Entity nodes where document does not contain references
Dear all,
Following on from [a question][1] I posted on StackOverflow, I note
that after parsing an XML document any nodes returned by
DocumentType.getEntities() have children only if the entity has been
referenced.
Grateful if someone could help me understand why this is and, if at
all possible, how I can workaround it in order to lookup the
replacement text of entities which have _not_ been referenced.
Kind regards,
-- Alan

Thanks for pointing me towards that - very helpful; sorry that I
hadn't found it before posting!
I have quoted Andy's reply in answer[1] to my question on
StackOverflow. Many thanks again.
Kind regards,

Hi Alan,
This is an old topic. Here is a response from 2004 [1] on the same subject.
It still applies now.
Thanks.
