xmlGetPredefinedEntity ()

xmlEntityPtr xmlGetPredefinedEntity         (const xmlChar *name);

Check whether this name is an predefined entity.

                                             const xmlChar *name);

Do an entity lookup in the document entity hash table and returns the corresponding entity, otherwise a lookup is done in the predefined entities too.

doc : 
name : 
Returns : 


xmlGetDtdEntity ()
