RE: SVG 11 DTD

Robin,
    While we appreciate your answer and opinion, useless or not, Corel
has included it as a part of their output format from their Designer 12
software. Our problem is that the Microsoft MSXML parser is failing on
version 1.1 of the DTD but runs properly on version 1.0. The parsing
error indicates "Parameter entity must be defined before it is used".
Any suggestions as to what may be causing this would be appreciated.

DTDs are completely useless, if you're having trouble because of the
inclusion of a DTD, I recommend simply removing the link to it and all
trouble should go away.
