Hi Paul, thanks for your answer. But it does not solve my problem because i want to have only one version of this DTD. The extension test.ent is a company specific structure. Other companies who uses the DTD too, should not be aware of this extension. Consequently i had the idea to put this structure in a separate file and use an optional external entity. In this way maybe it is possible to omit the extension if other companies want to use the DTD and no modification of the DTD is necessary. Despite of serveral tries to realize it, i did not manage to do it. I'm not sure if it is possible. Do you or anybody else know another possibility?

Those users who want it can declare it in the internal subset, so leave it out of the DTD. -- Colin Paul Adams Preston Lancashire --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
