When reading this in through the SAXbuilder, I get question marks and strange characters instead of the actual text.

Here is the code I am currently using, I figured it was an issue of encoding but it's not doing the trick:


        SAXBuilder sb = new SAXBuilder("org.apache.crimson.parser.XMLReaderImpl");
       
        InputSource is = new InputSource("file:///d:/workspace/OACD/OACD_rz.xml");
        is.setEncoding("UTF-8");
        sb.setEntityResolver(new EntityResolver() {
            public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId) throws SAXException, IOException {
                return new InputSource("file:///d:/workspace/oup-character-entities.ent");
            }
        });
        document = sb.build(is);

and the xml header is:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href="http://somestyle.xsl"?>
<!DOCTYPE dictionary SYSTEM "dictionary.dtd">
<dictionary xml:space='preserve'>

What I get back when I do a getText() on the element pr is "?r?bit"

I assume I am missing something obvious, pointing me to the right section of the documentation would be sufficient.

Thank you,
