I've just installed the xae and I'm a newbie at xml/docbook.  I'm
writing a long document which I wanted to break up using entities and
I'm having problems using xae in files other than the top-most include
file.  In each subfile I have this:

<?xml version='1.0' ?> 
 <chapter id="foo">

 [ body of file deleted ]

 </chapter>

 <!-- Local Variables: -->
 <!-- sgml-indent-step: 1 -->
 <!-- sgml-indent-data: 1 -->
 <!-- sgml-parent-document: "make.xml" -->
 <!-- End: -->

which I slurpped off of some cygwin/emacs/docbook tutorial.  An
example of the problem is when I select Markup->Insert Element I get
the error:

  sgml-menu-ask: No valid element at this point

Is it possible to break up files like this and still have xae
functionality?

Thanks,
