Hi Craig,
The DTD for XML catalogs is available in the following HTML file, from which
you can cut and paste the DTD text:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/14809/xml-catalogs.html#a.dtd
Then you should be able to validate your XML catalog file. Of course, valid
doesn't mean it will work. 8^)

yeah - in essence, it's trying to evaluate itself which of course
doesn't work. I couldn't figure out any way to evaluate the xml in my
catalog file

Hi Craig,
I'm also a little confused by your example. You named your catalog file
"catalog.dtd", and you are trying to validate it against a DTD (as
declared
in your DOCTYPE) also named "catalog.dtd". Are those the same file? If
so,
that isn't the correct approach. There is a DTD for XML catalogs
available
from OASIS that defines the catalog elements, but it isn't clear that is
what you are using here.
