The XInclude process adds xml:base
attributes to your elements when they are pulled from different directories.
That is so relative paths in those files can be kept track of. The
DocBook DTD added xml:base as a common attribute starting in version 4.3, so
you must be using a DTD older than that.

[docbook-apps] Validation Question
When validating a book that uses
xincludes I get the following errors:
Validation of overview.xml
with xmllint:
Parsing took 62 ms
Xinclude
processing took 1328 ms
../common/legalblurb.xml:3: element legalnotice:
validity error : No declaration for attribute base of element
legalnotice
../common/copynotice.xml:4: element legalnotice: validity
error : No declaration for attribute base of element
legalnotice
../common/copydate.xml:4: element copyright: validity error :
No declaration for attribute base of element copyright
overview.xml:7:
element section: validity error : No declaration for attribute base of
element section
overview.xml:6: element section: validity error : No
declaration for attribute base of element section
overview.xml:6: element
section: validity error : No declaration for attribute base of element
section
overview.xml:3: element section: validity error : No declaration
for attribute base of element section
overview.xml:3: element section:
validity error : No declaration for attribute base of element
section
Document overview.xml does not validate
Validating took 16
ms
Freeing took 15 ms
The book runs through the XSLT
without a hitch and all of the individual file validate. What am I
missing?
TIA,
Eric
