Thanks, Don. But what I (and Hussein, I think) are looking for is a URL where the DTDs or XSDs actually reside and can be read by a parser. These files could be used if DITA DTDs couldn't be found locally.
For example, the DocBook DTD can be found here: http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd -----Original Message----- From: Don Day [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, March 28, 2006 5:30 AM To: Mark Fletcher Cc: xmleditor-support at xmlmind.com Subject: RE: [XXE] RE: ditabase.dtd bug xmleditor-support-bounces at xmlmind.com wrote on 03/27/2006 11:00:23 AM: > PS - I made a request on the Yahoo DITA Users Group a while ago that > OASIS make the DTDs public, but got some pushback on it.

We would have preferred to write something like: > > <!DOCTYPE dita PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Composite//EN" > "http://www.oasis-open.org/dita/dtd/ditabase.dtd"> The OASIS Schemas and DTDs are listed directly on the home page for the Technical Committee at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=dita . Look for the heading "Committee Draft 1.0.1 of the DITA DTDs and Schemas " for the latest materials with bug fixes.
