Off the top of my head I'm not sure if it is used when present, or when present and the public identifier is not recognised. Either way, the validator doesn't need the public identifier to look up the location of the DTD when the user explicitly specifies its location. I don't believe this is an error, but my SGML is a little weak, so I could well be wrong. -- David Dorward <http://dorward.me.uk/>
