Ahhh yes. Actually, I did check out the DTD a couple of days ago. I remember it saying how you can only put in one "forward" "include" or "type". I just didn't connect how I would set a "type" and then specify a forward as the child node. Now it works just fine.
I knew it was probably something simple. I appreciate your help!
