When the parser first requires the dtd it will get it from the url (http://www.xyz.com/catalog.dtd), and then store it in a cache keyed on "-//PubCatalog". any future requests for the same dtd ("-//PubCatalog") will be served by the cache.
I think there is a way to make the dtd known straight off without the initial request, but am not sure. the above is just based on the understanding I've gathered from use, so may not be entirely accurate. hth dim On Wed, 5 Sep 2001, Harden ZHU wrote: > Hi > > I have some XML docs as > <!DOCTYPE Catalog PUBLIC "-//PubCatalog" "http://www.xyz.com/catalog.dtd";> > > I don't know how public indentifier works.
