xml xsl and JavaServer Pages Oh my!

I am using an example in the Standard Tag Library which is available from Jakarta.  It's a pretty simple jsp which requires a xml and an xsl.  I have a xml which uses a dtd, entities, and an xsl.  When I use the styledemo.jsp example hooking up to my xml and xsl everything displays fine as it should.  EXCEPT this in the xsl:

<img><xsl:attribute name="src"><xsl:value-of select="unparsed-entity-uri(MAP/@Place)"/></xsl:attribute></img>

What should happen here is that an image yo-yo.gif which is in the xml like so:

Partial xml (lst3_7.xml):

<?xml:stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="Lst3_7.xsl"?>
<!DOCTYPE EMAILLIST SYSTEM "Lst3_7.dtd">
<EMAILLIST>
 <SCRIPT language="javascript"><![CDATA[
 window.status = 'My XML Picture Show';
 ]]></SCRIPT>
 &emailA;
 &emailB;
</EMAILLIST>

Partial dtd (Lst3_7.dtd):

 <!NOTATION gif SYSTEM "<mimetype>Content-Type=image/gif">
 <!ENTITY Image1 SYSTEM "yo-yo.gif" NDATA gif>

Note the image name is actually in the dtd.

Anyway this works fine if the xml is accessed directly of course using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5+  But using the tag libriary I mentioned earlier the result for the images is this:

jndi:/localhost/jsp_files/yo-yo.gif

Note there are two issues here:

1) Why the jndi protocol?

2) why only one "/"

Needless to say the image does not show.  If I access the xml directly then the iamge shows:

file:///C:/Inetpub/WebDAV/WROX/ch03/yo-yo.gif

or on the web as so:

http://localhost/web-dav/wrox/ch03/yo-yo.gif
