RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Emacs and XML

["Kunath, Marcel" <kunathma at ais dot msu dot edu>]

Thanks so much for the help.

The capitalized <Book></Book> was the mistake. This is odd though because it
does insert <Book> as first element and not <book> like it is supposed to
be.

	<?xml version="1.0"?>

	<!DOCTYPE Book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" 
	"f:/emacs/sgml/dtd/docbkx412/docbookx.dtd" >
	<book>
    		<chapter>
      		<title>title</title>
      		<sect1>
				<title>sect1</title>
			<para>paragraph</para>
      		</sect1>
    		</chapter>
	</book>

Now everytime I load the file it parses the DTD. Is there an option to
remind it of a parsed DTD and how do I this without using ecatalog file as I
think XML doesn't use ecatalog files?

I'm sorry. From your previous description I wrongly assumed that you have
set up your sgml-environment only partially. Which doesn't seem to be the
case looking at your settings.

I am not sure if this makes a difference but as SGML_CATALOG_FILES is an
env-var lent from the unix-world there might be colons ':' necessary as
path-seperators even if running under NT. Are your other SGML-apps, e.g.
(o)nsgmls/(open)jade, able to successfully resolve public identifiers to
system identifiers by using catalogs?

This behaviour always occured in my environment if psgml couldn't resolve
all public identifiers correctly and so failed to parse the DTD. You might
want to enable psgml's "Sgml Trace Entity Lookup" either by "M-x
customize-apropopos sgml" and searching for the right line and setting the
value to true "t" or simply by "M-x set-variable sgml-trace-entity-lookup"
to true "'t". After that force psgml to parse the DTD by "C-c C-p". Then
you should obtain the trace in a buffer named "*SGML LOG*".

(Just to make sure: You named your top-level element to be "Book" which
should be "book", i.e. all lower case letters in XML. But this was correct
in your last mail so I guess it's just a typo this time.)

To give an impression what the trace should look like if it does work see
the following excerpt. It was tested with a small website-DTD xml-file. As
the trace gets very long I marked the snipped ranges with ellipses.
