You are quite right on all counts: >First of all, your XXE configuration is invalid. Open it in XXE (or >use xsdvalid) and you'll see that the <dtd> configuration element has >a "systemId" required attribute.
Yes, I'd actually removed the systemId while I was experimenting (on the basis that I don't actually need it since I'm using catalogs). >Now, this being said, I'm not sure the disabled "Edit Referenced >Document" is related to the above problem. Also true: XXE tolerates the missing system ID very nicely >XXE may have flattened your document when it has opened it. Well, you weren't quite right here - I'd actually inadvertently done it myself with an XSL transformation. Thanks very much for your help and sorry for wasting your time! Kevin Flynn
