Subject: Re: Catalog Requirements
/ Terry Allen <tallen@sonic.net> was heard to say: | They are, in order: | | http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/ | http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/ | http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/schema/4.1.2/ Oh, barf, I meant them all to be the same. | In the case above you have two different URLs: the SYSTEM | identifier that you are using for both the DTD and the style sheet, | and the URL for the schema location. So we can discard the latter | for purposes of this discussion. No, I meant it to be the same. | And yes, you could have used different URLs for the DTD and the | style sheet. I think that that's the only way in which you'll ever | be able to count on that instance being processed the same way | by various tools. Tools that understand xmlcat will work just fine with <system id="http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/" soi="docbook.dtd"/> <stylesheet id="http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/" soi="docbook.css"/> <schemaloc id="http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/" soi="docbook.xsd"/> | And do you have software that actually will fetch the DTD or the style | sheet from the same directory depending on the XML function of its | identifier? Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems a contrived | example that doesn't solve any real problem. No, I don't, but if I had a catalog that let me get the right answer, I might. Terry, are you really suggesting that this boils down to <uri target="first uri" destination="second uri"/> and that's all we should provide? I think that's just awful. It means I must use unique "first uri" across all applications all the time forever or I'm going to get hosed. Be seeing you, norm -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | We are thinking beings, and we cannot http://nwalsh.com/ | exclude the intellect from | participating in any of our | functions.--William James
