Re: SGML validation

To test my idea, I removed the file:/// portion, and I thought it was going
to work.  I now appears to try to validate, but maxs out after 200 errors,
like the following:

nsgmls -wxml srs.xml
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin\nsgmls.exe:c:/usr/pkg/emacs-21.2/site-lisp/xae-1.0beta
7/doctypes/docbook/docbookx.dtd:74:15:W: named character reference
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin\nsgmls.exe:c:/usr/pkg/emacs-21.2/site-lisp/xae-1.0beta
7/doctypes/docbook/docbookx.dtd:74:17:E: "X20AC" is not a function name
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin\nsgmls.exe:c:/usr/pkg/emacs-21.2/site-lisp/xae-1.0beta
7/doctypes/docbook/ent/iso-amsa.ent:8:17:W: named character reference
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin\nsgmls.exe:c:/usr/pkg/emacs-21.2/site-lisp/xae-1.0beta
7/doctypes/docbook/ent/iso-amsa.ent:8:19:E: "X21B6" is not a function name
h:\usr\pkg\cygwin\bin\nsgmls.exe:c:/usr/pkg/emacs-21.2/site-lisp/xae-1.0beta
7/doctypes/docbook/ent/iso-amsa.ent:9:17:W: named character reference

goes on, and on, etc.
