Thanks for the response. If i understand you correctly, i should do this:
XMLReader r = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();
MyXMLFilter filter = new MyXMLFilter();
filter.setParent(r);
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Document d = db.newDocument();
TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer t = tf.newTransformer();
t.transform(new SAXSource(filter, new InputSource(srcHtml)),
new DOMResult(d));
and i should expect the
skippedEntity(String entity)
method of my filter to get called when a is found.
However this method is never called for me. Am I missing something?

Hi,
You're making assumptions about the implementation which aren't
required and certainly aren't true for Xerces. There is no underlying
SAX parser. The DOM is built from XNI events. You cannot plug SAX
handlers into it.
If you want to build a SAX filter for replacing skipped entities [1]
and then build a DOM from that, you could try using the Transformer
API instead (i.e. javax.xml.transform.Transformer.transform(SAXSource,
DOMResult)) where the SAXSource contains your XMLFilter [2] which does
this resolution.
Thanks.
