1) You will have to write your own EntityResolver that maps external references to inputs. Then connect your entity resolver to the parser before calling the Parse method. Look in the examples for code.
2) There are no getOuterXML method in xerces. You'll have to create a DOMWriter and serialize the node yourself. Look in the examples for code.
