+ +============================================================================+
+ | DESCRIPTION |
+ external-parameter-entities I absolutely must have support for, or find a different parser which supports it (unfortunately no other SAX 2.0 parsers in Java support it). The reason is that my application has no need for the DTD,
+ and will quite often be given XML documents to read that contain <!DOCTYPE
+ declarations which point to nowhere sensible. Currently parsing will then fail, and I need to turn DTD reading off to avoid this problem.
+
+ If Xerces does not add support for this I will need to hack support into Michael Kay's version of David Brownell's version of Microstar's �lfred, and I really would like to avoid that.
