Dear José, We understand your use-case and indeed the Author page could be improved to try and resolve the unparsed entity SYSTEM through the URI resolver and use the result to display the image. On the other hand, I do not think this is consistent with the output of an XSLT transformation. From what we tested, both the Saxon 6 and Saxon 9 XSLT transformers do not try to go through catalog when solving the unparsed entity using the "unparsed-entity-uri" method. Here are some small samples: catalog.xml: <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <!-- This is a sample --> <uri name="http://www.oxygenxml.com/lake.jpeg" uri="../lake.jpeg"/> </catalog> test.xml: <!DOCTYPE root[ <!ENTITY ENT SYSTEM "http://www.oxygenxml.com/lake.jpeg" NDATA JPEG> ]> <root ref="ENT"></root> test.xsl: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:template match="//root"> <xsl:value-of select="unparsed-entity-uri(@ref)"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> From what I understand from the specifications the unparsed entities are not solved through catalog. See: http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#unparsed-entities Do you plan to perform additional processing of the XML file before transforming?

Hello,

The XML documents I work with have the following form: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE dmodule [ <!ENTITY TBD SYSTEM "http://myserver.mydomain.net:81/svn/s1000d/TBD.svg" NDATA SVG> ]> <dmodule ...> ... <graphic boardno="TBD"/> ... </dmodule>

As you can see, the figures system location are in a subversion repository and when specified as in the sample, figures are displayed OK in Author mode, CSS associated to the documents have the following entry to handle figures: graphic { display: block; content: url(unparsed-entity-uri(attr(boardno))); }

I was trying to separate XML content from the actual subversion repository server inserting in the catalog.xml for my document type association: ... <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://s1000d/" rewritePrefix="http://myserver.mydomain.net:81/svn/s1000d/"/> <rewriteURI uriStartString="file://" rewritePrefix="http://myserver.mydomain.net:81/svn/s1000d/"/> ...

and changing the ENTITY declaration to: <!ENTITY TBD SYSTEM "http://s1000d/TBD.svg" NDATA SVG>

But when in Author mode, the figure is not displayed, the following error message is displayed in a red box instead of the image: "Cannot display image http://s1000d/TBD.svg"

It seems the rewrite statement in catalog.xml is not working.

Any ideas?
