Hi all, I have some code that looks like this: <xsl:template match="/"> <saxon:doctype> <dtd:doctype name="yyy" public="-//yyy//DTD yyy//EN" system="yyy.dtd"> <dtd:entity name="logo512" system="logo512.jpg" notation="JPG"/> </dtd:doctype> </saxon:doctype> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> It works with saxon version 8-4 but in 8-6-1 it returns an error SEPM0004: When 'standalone' or 'doctype-system' is specified, the document must be well-formed; but this document contains a top-level text node While processing testbestand yyy.xml: Run-time errors were reported Has something changed between versions? What can i do about it to make it work in the new version? Thanks in advance, Glen

Yes, this rule (which is present in the serialization specification) is enforced in Saxon 8.6.1, and was not enforced in Saxon 8.4. You haven't shown your xsl:output declaration. Presumably it contains either a doctype-system attribute or (perhaps more likely) a standalone attribute. You may have to get rid of that. Internally, saxon:doctype works by generating a text node and outputting it using disable-output-escaping. The serializer therefore thinks that there is text before the first element in the document.

Thanks for your answer. I had a standalone attribute in my doctype-system. Glen Bal

I think I will simply document this as a restriction on saxon:doctype (i.e. that you can't use it when you specify standalone). Trying to lift the restriction gets too complicated. Michael Kay
