Oliver, We have a solution to your problem, although it has not been publicly released yet, it is still in beta test. We can take your DTD and produce a comparator (Java) for you that knows about the DTD and can make an intelligent comparison between the files, even if some elements are not ordered. The result is a delta file which is an XML file, so can be processed in any way you like. One way to process it is to use XSL to generate HTML to view the diffs in a browser - we can provide this for you. There is a _preliminary_ web site at www.deltaxml.com Please send us your DTD, and some example files, and we should be able to help you.
