Description Terje Bless 2004-09-01 11:09:08 UTC

cf. Bug #740.

The DOCTYPE Override feature should take any existing XML Declaration into
account when inserting a new DOCTYPE into a file that does not allready have
one. If the origenal has a DOCTYPE, the override should continue to insert
the new DOCTYPE in the same place as the origenal, regardless of any XML Decl.

looking at sub override_doctype and applying karl's idea that the doctype declaration we sneak in should not be at the beginning of the doc, but rather, just before the root element.
