The inability of XML Catalog to check for the presence of correct URLs seems
like a significant limitation.
XML Catalog only works if:
- you have pre-knowledge of exactly what URLs will
be present in the XML (XSLT, XSD, RNG, SVG, etc.)
documents that you receive/process
- the XML documents will always contain the correct
URL; there will never be any accidental or malicious
alteration of URLs
Yes?
