A normal project might not be limited to one directory, but to a 
directory structure. Same with xml files spread over the internet. But 
you still might have the DTDs local that validate those docs.

Yes, I'd set the working dir to the directory where the xml files (and 
in your case the DTD) reside using:

Properties prop = System.getProperties();
prop.setProperty("user.dir", "c:/xmlfiles")

Regards.
