> The public identifier is an ISO standard and has a sytax all it's > own: Although that syntax actually only applies to FORMAL public identifiers in SGML. Not to XML public identifiers. XML only specifies Public identifier syntax by a range of characters, and the (non normative) SGML declaration for XML specifies FORMAL NO. In other words XML public identifiers don't have to use the "-//ECC, Inc//DTD myDTD version //EN" syntax. In particular it is quite legal (and even perhaps sensible) in XML to use a URI as the public identifier, although this wouldn't be legal in most SGML dialects where the PUBLIC identifier is normally specified as being an FPI.
