As far as I understood you declare a bunch of parameter entities for later use in conditional sections in a separate file called marks.sgml. As those declarations are parameter and not normal (non-parameter) entities you have to treat them different. Marks.sgml contains DTD declarations in opposite to chap1.sgml which contains document parts. I tested the following small example sgml-files against nsgmls: marks.sgml: <!ENTITY % RFC "INCLUDE"> <!-- Draft Only --> <!-- more like these --> chap1.sgml: <chapter> <title>Conditional Chapter</title> <para>baz</para> </chapter> document.sgml: <!DOCTYPE Book PUBLIC "-//Davenport//DTD DocBook V3.0//EN"[ <!ENTITY % Marks system "marks.sgml" > <!ENTITY chap1 system "chap1.sgml" > <!-- more --> %Marks; ]> <book> <chapter> <!-- just to make document valid in any case --> <title>foo</title> <para>bar</para> </chapter> <!-- following a conditional section --> <![%RFC;[ &chap1; ]]> </book> As you can see, the param entity Marks is declared in the local section of the DTD: "<!ENTITY % Marks system "marks.sgml" >" and referenced "%Marks;" to include the file marks.sgml. This has all to be done within a DTD declaration. Then in the body of the document the declarations from marks.sgml and the content from chap1.sgml can be referenced as shown in the example for a conditional section. Hope this helps.
