Before sending mails to the list 1.Learn e-mail ethics. 2.Try to understand the mail. I never begged for any code.I just asked if it is possible to get information from dtd.I never asked how to parse a xml file.If you do not know, restrain from sending absurd mails like this. Anyway,thanks for cut and pasting the code. DK > Hi: > > DTD is Document Type Definition.
