Hi all, I'm using cocoon 1.8.2 with tomcat and Apache on redhat linux, this is my problem: the xml document I've to modify with fp must have this declaration: <? xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> But when I modify it using fp this pi become: <? xml version="1.0" ?> What can I do? I need the encoding attribute becouse this document is an entity of another xml document: but when cocoon parses it with Xerces, throws this exception: Error found handling the request. org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: White space is required between the version and the encoding declaration. at org.apache.cocoon.parser.AbstractParser.fatalError(AbstractParser.java:105) at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLParser.reportError(XMLParser.java:1085) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
