I performed this intriguing experiment, and found that, yes, nsgmls
with a doctype passed to it like that would complete the validation
without complaining that the child had no doctype. But when called
thus, nsgmls apparently does not know where the child fits into the
overall picture. So, if I run it on, say, "about.xml", it doesn't
understand how that file is included, eg:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE website PUBLIC "-//Norman Walsh//DTD Website V1.10//EN"
"/usr/pkg/share/sgml/docbook-website/1.10/website.dtd" [
<!ENTITY whatsnew SYSTEM "whatsnew.xml">
<!ENTITY comp_centric SYSTEM "comp_centric.xml">
<!ENTITY without_comps SYSTEM "without_comps.xml">
<!ENTITY downloads SYSTEM "downloads.xml">
<!ENTITY about SYSTEM "about.xml">
]>
The result is that nsgmls condemns "about.xml"s first line
<webpage><config param="filename" value="about.html"/>
claiming the doctype does not allow the entity 'webpage' here.
So Mark, I take it this was what might have become clear to me if I
only _thought_ about it a little more? <bg>
Thanks all,
