Hi,
We have an app that has been running fine on Xerces 1.1.1 and we just 
replaed our jar with Xerces 1.3.0. Everything compiles fine, but now 
when we parse any of our XML files like the sample below, the parser throws a
null pointer exception. It appears to be around our use of ENTITY references.
Note the file noted in the SYSTEM ref does exist  and the XML in it is fine and
can be parsed on its own a-ok. Any Ideas? This works in 1.1.1
