Subject: DOCBOOK: SYSTEM identifier
Hi, I am just writing my first DocBook document now, a simple technical guide which uses the root element "book" (since it has a few "part"s and "chapter"s and "section"s). I used the Fink utility to download DocBook, and am wondering out of the many files that arrived in the package, which one of these I should use as my SYSTEM identifier in my document type declaration. I have a file called /sw/share/xml/dtd/docbookx/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd, that tells me the following: <!-- This is the driver file for V4.1.2 of the DocBook DTD. Please use the following formal public identifier to identify it: "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" For example, if your document's top-level element is Book, and you are using DocBook directly, use the FPI in the DOCTYPE declaration: <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" "http://www.oasis- open.org/docbook/xml/4.0/docbookx.dtd" [...]> But according to "DocBook: The Definitive Guide", XML DocBook documents usually use the SYSTEM identifier and I don't see any mention of this. Maybe I'm just confused -- can anyone give me some advice? TIA, Erik ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H. Brown pricee@hhbrown.com
