Hi Benoit Remember that the resources under /WEB-INF/ is not directly accessible for the end user. If you place your DTD in a directory TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/myApplication/ You will have directly access to it, from other applications, accessing the DTD through tomcat.
e.g.. I have a dtd placed in TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/myapp/my.dtd the receiving XML have the following header: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE message SYSTEM "http://127.0.0.1:8090/myapp/my.dtd"> And my Servlet is able to validate the document according to this DTD. So, in short, I don't think you need to register your dtd, just placed it, in a directory outside the WEB-INF. Then every application can access it, through the URL, not the fully qualified path. If this is not, what you questioned, please explain your problem, and I will try to help Jan -----Original Message----- From: Benoit Segaert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 20. februar 2002 10:39 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How can I register a DTD in a war I want to validate a XML with a DTD in a War application. I have my DTD available in the war file. I use a XML file like the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <!DOCTYPE Application SYSTEM "file:///C:/java/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1/webapps/myapplication/WEB-INF/Ldap Framework.dtd"> <Application> ... But I want to register my DTD in Tomcat for the using of the following XML header <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <!DOCTYPE Application PUBLIC "-//Uniway Belgium//DTD Application Configuration 1.0//EN" "http://www.uniway.be/application/dtds/application_1_0.dtd"> <Application> ... How can I explain to Tomcat the mapping between this header and the real place of the DTD in the War of Jar? I don't know if it is the good mailing list but I can see that Tomcat provides this feature.
