I have a problem about XInclude and docbook. 

With XInclude it�s possible to nest xml-documents. A book can be devided into chapters 
and a chapter can be devided into smaller parts and so on. One of the "greatest" 
advantages with XInclude is the possibility to validate the modules. In my chapters, I 
have a XInclude element pointing to a smaller part of the chapter. This meens that I 
have to change my DTD in a way that it accepts this xinclude element to be able to 
validate the chapter. I will have to to this for the other parts as well. 
I don�t see the big advantage og validating the parts if I need specially designed 
DTDs for all the parts. 

Now somebody will answer that I have to bring all the parts together before I can 
validate the document. It wolud be possible, but then I am getting even more sceptical 
about the possibility to validate the parts.

I would be very thankfull if somebody could explain this to me.
