Hi Dave,
XML Catalog 1.1 (implemented by the Apache resolver) added support for
resolving based on a suffix and that should solve the problem as the
file will end in the same way. Note also that you need a system mapping
(not a uri mapping) to resolve a DTD reference, something like below:
<systemSuffix systemIdSuffix="your.dtd" uri="path/to/local/copy.dtd"/>
Best Regards,
George
