I'm slightly puzzled that you don't seem to see it that way. Finding a stylesheet is going to be pretty damn critical, and we need to make sure it's a 100% robust mechanism. >But, I gather from your question that you don't see it that way. >So my answer is to ask you another question: how will the processor >find the style sheet?

Or does this imply that catalogs are for references to DTDs and entity files only, and that refs to other resources such as catalogs, are not going to be done this way? >For example invent a PI such as James suggested for the stylesheet: [...] > ><?XML-stylesheet type="text/dsssl" href="foo.dsl"?> [...] > <?XML-catalog type="sgml-open-catalog" href="foo.soc"?> Looks OK, but how soon is this going to gell? ///Peter
