-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN is not a System Identifier,
it's a Public Identifier.

Your catalog must contain an entry for this Public Identifier mapping
it to a local filename, eg

PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "/dtds/xml/xhtml1-strict.dtd"

But be aware that the use of Public Identifiers is unspecified in XML:
only System Identifiers are mandatory. So a lot of software will not
support Public Identifers.

Correct. Psgml has no HTTP capability (I've often wondered why no-one
has added it :-)
