  Normal, c:/xsherlock0.1/art500/art500.dtd  is a file name, good enough
to read the content, but not good enough to build a full URL for relative
path computations. Have you read RFC 2396 since I pointed you at it ?

You may never escape the number of issues around the error of using a
filename for URI until you understand how it's supposed to work !
  c:\xsherlock0.1\catalog.xml + ./art500/art500.dtd
     = art500/art500.dtd

  file:///c:/xsherlock0.1/ctalog.xml + ./art500/art500.dtd 
     = file:///c:/xsherlock0.1/art500/art500.dtd
