http address of DTDs not valid

[randahl]

According to the DTD for jbosscmp-jdbc 3.0 the system address is

http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jbosscmp-jdbc_3_0.dtd

- that address only returns a document not found which forces me to change it to something like

file://C:/jboss-3.0.2/docs/dtd/jbosscmp-jdbc_3_0.dtd

in order to be able to validate the DTD. Is this intentional, or is the DTD just temporarily off-line.

I actually should now this but i don't anymore

How is the dtd attached to the xml document

something like

<!DOCTYPE rootNodeName SYSTEM "file path">

In the old day's of SGML this should have been a valid path to a system resource. So http stuff never would have worked. Maybe XML changed this but i do not know for sure.

Just a thought

[l.g.]

You can find all DTD's in /docs/dtd directory

I know, but it would be easier if the HTTP system address worked - then IDEs could download the DTD automatically from the web without the user taking any special action.
