When I load a document, it have text "ñ" I recibe an error:
Reference to undeclared entity, 'Ntilde'
"Ntilde" is an entity of iso-8859-1, why load method can't load it. How can
I refer entities ISO-8859-1?

There is only 5 predefined entities in XML - <, >, ', "
and &. All other must be properly defined in DTD.
How can
I refer entities ISO-8859-1?

1. Inline declaration:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE foo [
<!ENTITY copy "©">
]>
<foo>&copy; Foo corp.</foo>

2. External declaration (the whole set of HTML latin1 entities):

<!DOCTYPE foo [
<!ENTITY % HTMLlat1 SYSTEM
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-lat1.ent">
%HTMLlat1;
]>
<foo>&copy; Foo corp.</foo>

I do that and it works, but the problem is when I tray to validate de
file with a external XSD, it says all the elements are not declared...

The other problem was the files are build for third persons, is there
other options for add entities and it no affect to xml?

thank you

It's not clear to me what do you mean. The only way to use entities
(except five predefined) is to declare them in DTD. Full stop.
