Re: Is it possible to declare entities without a DTD

Thanks for the suggestions - I found that with the Microsoft
XML parser I could process Lee's XML (after adding a ? to
the close of the tag on the first line...) as long as
I set the validateOnParse property of the Microsoft
XMLDOMDOcument object to 'false' - by default it is
'true' and complained that the document without the
complete DTD was not valid (although it is 'well formed')
