OASIS XML catalogs are useful for redirecting a request for a certain resource from one location to another. Typically, they are used so that XML schemas or DTD modules that are on some remote machine can instead be referenced locally, either for performance or necessity (e.g. use when not connected). "Catalogs for Fun and Profit" is an OASIS Catalog Tutorial that covers the in's and out's of using XML catalogs to simplify working with industry standard XML data models using the OASIS catalog support in Stylus Studio. This tutorial covers the following topics:
