Parsing XML Entity with python xml.sax

Question

Parsing XML with python using xml.sax, but my code fails to catch Entities. Why doesn\'t skippedEntity() or resolveEntity() report in the following:

import          


        

Answer 1

I think resolveEntity and skippedEntity are only called for external DTDs. I got this to work by modifying the XML.

XML = """

Entity: ¬
"""

The external.dtd contains two simple entity declarations.

Also, I got rid of resolveEntity.

This outputs -

TestHandler.startElement(), test : step: bar foo ()
TestHandler.skippedEntity: not

Hope this helps.
