[jdom-interest] Simple xhtml/entity resolver?

     Hello,

  I need a simple way to convert some XHTML fragments, provided as a
JDOM Element, into plain text. I am willing to ignore most HTML tags
and consider only the most commonly used predefined entities.

  In JDOM, an entity reference has a name, a public id and a system
id. I think I know what the named means, for named entities. But what
about numeric entities, how do I get the code point? And what are
public id and system id?

  Thanks!

     Take care
     Oliver
