/ Ralph Ferris <ralph@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> was heard to say:

| 
| Since James's site doesn't serve hmpro5.dtd, the result is a string of

Hi Ralph,

Catalog files can be used to map system identifiers, too. A very
handy trick:

SYSTEM hmpro5.dtd /path/to/your/version/hmpro5.dtd

or

SYSTEM hmpro5.dtd http://www.softquad.com/wherever/they/publish/it/hmpro5.dtd

                                        Cheers,
                                          norm
