Re: URI, SOI (off topic)

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Terry Allen <tallen@sonic.net> was heard to say:
| | SYSTEM "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/" 
| | 	"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"
| | 
| | should work--it does, for example, in Arbortext's Epic 4.0.
| 
| But Norm's example had as the rhs only soi="docbookx.dtd".
| I assumed then that he wanted to send a GET to the URL of
| the lhs with the additional info "send me docbookx.dtd", or
| to concatenate the two before sending.

Oh, no, sorry Terry. I was just saving a few keystrokes. The SOI has
to be absolute (or relative to the base URI of the catalog entry).
