Hi Geert,
Interesting. I checked into the document and noticed that it references a DTD that references entities defined in files separate from the DTD. Thanks, Tim -----Original Message----- From: general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com [mailto:general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com] On Behalf Of Geert Josten Sent: Monday, July 05, 2010 6:43 AM To: General Mark Logic Developer Discussion Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] How to handle named HTMLcharacter entities when loading an ISO-8859-1 encoded document into MarkLogic? Hi Tim, To my knowledge, MarkLogic Server only accepts the five default XML named entity (lt, gt, amp, apos, quot) by default, and any other named entities added to the local declaration subset. External declarations are ignored. >From the top of my head the local declaration should look something like the following, add it directly after the XML declaration: <!DOCTYPE {name_of_root} PUBLIC "some_pub_id" [ <!ENTITY sim CDATA "∼"> ]> It might be easier though to put a proxy-service in between (if possible), that normalizes encoding, as well as resolves these entities (which usually only requires parsing the XML with a DTD declaration)..
