Suppose I simply want to put the DTDs at an intranet site served by a local HTTP server what would be the problem with this? Are you really suggesting a DTD needs to travel with every document instance? Or for that matter every schema. Are you defending a clearcut bug on the basis that _you_ don't like the way XML 1.0 defines a system identifier, or the W3C's XHTML Basic recommendation? IMHO documents with DOCTYPES referencing DTDs written either by the W3C or according to W3C specs ought not outwrite hang IE5. To suggest otherwise is tatamount to suggesting standards only ought be followed when you personally agree with them. Jonathan Borden The Open Healthcare Group http://www.openhealth.org
