Getting an HTMLDocument

Hi-

  I'm unlcear on the best way to take an existing XHTML document and obtain
the DOM representation of that document as an org.w3c.dom.HTMLDocument. I
can get a DOM Document, but I get a ClassCastException casting it to
HTMLDocument (makes sense, really). However, I don't see any way to get it
to an HTMLDocument. I also see how to /create/ an HTMLDocument through
HTMLDocumentImplementation, but that's about all I can get. Any help is
appreciated.

Thanks,
Brett

You'll need to create a parse that uses HTMLDocumentBuilder to construct
an HTMLDocument. Otherwise, it will always constrct a Document.

The implementation of HTMLDocument is not a wrapper but rather extends
the Xerces DOM.
