Help, tied up by the chain

[Ruan Strydom]

ps: Try something like HTML which has a parse-able DTD.

I will hack together a simpler docbook dtd and add it to the catalog since the 
doc team uses it. They can always override it by adding their own to the 
catalog since user catalogs take preference over system catalogs.

Cheers
