Hello all,
I have an XML file with an internal DTD which looks roughly like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE root [
<!ELEMENT root (node)*>
<!ELEMENT node (description, info, node*)>
<!ELEMENT description (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT info EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST info
text CDATA #REQUIRED
>
]>
<root>
<node>
<description>node 1</description>
<info text="info 1" />
<node>
<description>node 1-1</description>
<info text="info 1-1" />
</node>
</node>
<node>
<description>node 2</description>
<info text="info 2" />
<node>
<description>node 2-1</description>
<info text="info 2-1" />
</node>
<node>
<description>node 2-2</description>
<info text="info 2-2" />
</node>
</node>
</root>
I want to parse this file into my application, modify the data (this includes
maybe creating and/or deleting nodes), and write it back into the file --
including the DTD. (It doesn't necessarily need validation, though.)
I tried xml.dom.ext.PrettyPrint, but it produces only
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE root>
<root>
...
</root>
actually lacking the document type definition.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance & cheers =)
