XML's DTD

I know we're not XML experts here, but does specifying a DTD such as: [code:1] [/code:1] Cause the application reading in the XML file to access the network and find the DTD file? I would think the answer is [b]Yes[/b] but this seems pretty stupid (or limiting, take your pick) to me (why would reading in a properties file require the app to access the internet?). Is the solution to save Sun's DTD locally and package (and then deploy) it with my application? Any good XML forums to post this question at? Thanks, Jeff
yeah, fair enough I guess...
