Upload diagnoses

Because the diagnoses list can be quite long, the configuration of the diagnoses in openIMIS Web Application can be done only by uploading the list encoded as an XML document.

DTD definition of the XML file for uploading/downloading of diagnoses is:

<!DOCTYPE Diagnoses [
	<!ELEMENT Diagnoses (Diagnosis*)>
	<!ELEMENT Diagnosis (DiagnosisCode, DiagnosisName)>
	<!ELEMENT DiagnosisCode (#CDATA)>
	<!ELEMENT DiagnosisName (#CDATA)>
]>

An example of an XML file that uses and conforms to this DTD follows.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Diagnoses>
	<Diagnosis>
		<DiagnosisCode>A00</DiagnosisCode>
		<DiagnosisName>Cholera</DiagnosisName>
	</Diagnosis>
	<Diagnosis>
		<DiagnosisCode>A01</DiagnosisCode>
		<DiagnosisName>Typhoid and paratyphoid fevers</DiagnosisName>
	</Diagnosis>
	<Diagnosis>
		<DiagnosisCode>A02</DiagnosisCode>
