What you did is OK, and the XML Catalog works fine in XXE, but starting from version V2.8 Patch 1 (November 29, 2004), *xi:includes* are no longer XML Catalog enabled. (Yes, this is a regression.) Why? - "File|Save As" cannot handle modular documents where an XML catalog is used to resolve the locations found in the href attribute of xi:include. - xi:includes are supposed to be used *internally* by XXE to create modular documents. In such case, the fact that xi:includes are not XML Catalog enabled is not a problem.
