DocumentType

public interface DocumentType implements Node
Each Document has a doctype attribute whose value is either null or a DocumentType object. The DocumentType interface in the DOM Core provides an interface to the list of entities that are defined for the document, and little else because the effect of namespaces and the various XML schema efforts on DTD representation are not clearly understood as of this writing.

The DOM Level 2 doesn't support editing DocumentType nodes.

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification.

Fields Summary
Constructors Summary
Methods Summary
public org.w3c.dom.NamedNodeMapgetEntities()
A NamedNodeMap containing the general entities, both external and internal, declared in the DTD. Parameter entities are not contained. Duplicates are discarded. For example in:
<!DOCTYPE
ex SYSTEM "ex.dtd" [ <!ENTITY foo "foo"> <!ENTITY bar
"bar"> <!ENTITY bar "bar2"> <!ENTITY % baz "baz">
]> <ex/>
the interface provides access to foo and the first declaration of bar but not the second declaration of bar or baz. Every node in this map also implements the Entity interface.
The DOM Level 2 does not support editing entities, therefore entities cannot be altered in any way.

return
the entities declared in this DTD.

public java.lang.StringgetInternalSubset()
The internal subset as a string. The actual content returned depends on how much information is available to the implementation. This may vary depending on various parameters, including the XML processor used to build the document.

return
the internal subset.
since
DOM Level 2

public java.lang.StringgetName()
The name of DTD; i.e., the name immediately following the DOCTYPE keyword.

return
the name of the DTD.

public org.w3c.dom.NamedNodeMapgetNotations()
A NamedNodeMap containing the notations declared in the DTD. Duplicates are discarded. Every node in this map also implements the Notation interface.
The DOM Level 2 does not support editing notations, therefore notations cannot be altered in any way.

return
the notations declared in this DTD.

public java.lang.StringgetPublicId()
The public identifier of the external subset.

return
the public identifier.
since
DOM Level 2

public java.lang.StringgetSystemId()
The system identifier of the external subset.

return
the system identifier.
