What's not clear about that? The fact you have a "reference.dtd" in the appropriate directory on your machine doesn't mean the validator has one in the same place! > The docs were uploaded as type text/xml from Opera 9.01. > Any suggestions?

They'll also need to resolve your relative URLs like "reference.dtd". -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.apachetutor.org/
