Hi! All, We can have a DTD as a collection of DTD files. Similarly, can a XML file contain other xml files. Consider the following example: --------file2.dtd--------- <!ELEMENT Y (#PCDATA)> --------------------------- Now I use this in file1.dtd *********File1.dtd********** <!ELEMENT file1 (X+ , Y)> <!ELEMENT X (#PCDATA)> <!ENTITY % file2 SYSTEM "file2.dtd"> %file2; ***************************** Defining File1.xml as follows: ---------------File1.xml-------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE file1 SYSTEM "file1.dtd"> <file1> <X>xyz</X> <Y>123</Y> </file1> ------------------------------------------- Now in File1.xml, I can have both "X" and "Y" elements. Can I use one xml file in another. For example instead of defining <Y> element again in File1.xml, suppose if I have File2.xml as follows: *******file2.xml*********** <Y>123</Y> *************************** How do I use these in File1.xml again. Can I define an external entity for an .xml file also. I tried this and it seems to be giving some problems. Please let me know if its possible. Thanks in advance Usha K.
