Subject: new user and issue with 'article'
Hi,
I just started using docbook, seen it's results many times over the years,
love the resulting documents. I am using gemdoc on xp for processing, and
html-kit for editing.
My first forays into docbook were simple one-page bits of troubleshooting
info for our network. I started using the <book> way formatting, then
after some exploring on the web found a tutorial, now a bit outdated, that
explained how <article> is differant from <book> for shorter writings. So
now I am using <article> but I found when I use this -
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.1//EN">
I get this error during validation -
Line: 3, Char: 12 Error: element "ARTHEADER" undefined
and when I use this -
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V5.0//EN">
I get 27 errors -
Line: 1, Char: 57 Warning: cannot generate system identifier for public
text "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V5.0//EN"
Line: 1, Char: 57 Error: reference to entity "ARTICLE" for which no system
identifier could be generated
Line: 1, Char: 0: entity was defined here
Line: 1, Char: 57 Error: DTD did not contain element declaration for

Line: 2, Char: 10 Error: element "ARTICLE" undefined

Line: 23, Char: 13 Error: element "LISTITEM" undefined
Line: 23, Char: 19 Error: element "PARA" undefined
Line: 24, Char: 11 Error: element "LISTITEM" undefined
Line: 24, Char: 17 Error: element "PARA" undefined
Line: 25, Char: 11 Error: element "LISTITEM" undefined
Line: 25, Char: 17 Error: element "PARA" undefined
Both of the above examples use the same .sgml document, listed here -
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V5.0//EN">
<article>
<artheader>
<title>Karen R. gets error in GL - Unable to print report while
transactions are being updated</title>

</orderedlist>
</article>
When I use this DTD -
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V3.1//EN">
it validates with no errors. Should I just continue to use this older
version DTD or what is the fix for my problems above?
Thanks,
