Re: [docbook-apps] xinclude xpointer not including with id

Bob, Dean. 

Thank both of you for the help here!

I wound up copying the dtds locally and pointing to the local copy with the --nonet option worked!!

 

I am not really fond of doing it this way, and it would require modifying the DOCTYPE statement in every single doc. 

So I am thinking that setting up a catalog is going to be the way to go here. 

It looks like Bob covered that in chapter 5 of the Complete guide, and 

I got some work to do. 

 

Thank you both again for your help!!

I use the same docbook doctypes as you are using. However, I use a catalog to point those to local copy of the DTD. The --novalid puts off the validation until later, which is probably the main issue you are facing.

The --nonet just stops XSLTPROC from searching the web if something fails and makes the process much faster.

Very good point Dean. 

 

I am using bare minimal options...

 

xsltproc -o foo.fo  --xinclude  foo.xsl file.xml

 

just in looking at your suggested options, are you inferring that I should have a local dtd copy and point to a local dtd file. My thinking is that I would want to point to the one on oasis-org... is that not the appropriate way?
