<!DOCTYPE TitleFile PUBLIC "-//CarmenCorp//DTD Carmen//EN" "" [
Instead of: <!DOCTYPE TitleFile SYSTEM "carmen.dtd"> The correct public identifier is different than the one I show. You should know what the public identifier is for the Carmen DTD. If a system identifier is used in the XML instance then the system identifier will be used in place of a public identifier in the application. In your structured Applications file (structapps.fm) the public identifier is mapped to a system location. Something like this: Public ID: -//CarmenCorp//DTD Carmen//EN Filename: $STRUCTDIR\xml\carmen\carmen.dtd -----Original Message----- From: framers-bounces+richard.allen=uspto....@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces+richard.allen=uspto.gov at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Bodvar Bjorgvinsson Sent: Friday, March 09, 2007 9:36 AM To: Rick Quatro Cc: framers at lists.frameusers.com; framers at omsys.com Subject: Re: DTD Location IIRC, and if you are talking about an XML document, you have to set the path (can be relative) with the file name. The following are samples from the XML 1.0 Recommendation (www.w3c.org) on ENTITY: --------- Examples of external entity declarations: <!ENTITY open-hatch SYSTEM "http://www.textuality.com/boilerplate/OpenHatch.xml"> <!ENTITY open-hatch PUBLIC "-//Textuality//TEXT Standard open-hatch boilerplate//EN" "http://www.textuality.com/boilerplate/OpenHatch.xml"> <!ENTITY hatch-pic SYSTEM "../grafix/OpenHatch.gif" NDATA gif > --------- I think you can use the same convention as in the last example. After all, this is an URI. Hope this works for you, but I am not quite sure I remember things correctly. It is a long time since I have worked with XML. I'll have a look at it when I get home. I got my XML books there.
