It doesn't appear that IE5 (March 18th release) uses the DTD to validate XML, as did the IE5 Beta 2 release. Has anyone been able to make IE5 detect when a doc doesn't follow the rules of the DTD that it references? I've tried local and public cases. See: http://members.home.com/kensall/tests/ http://members.home.com/kensall/tests/collection1pubbugs.xml http://members.home.com/kensall/tests/collection1.dtd There are three errors that _should_ be detected in collection1pubbugs.xml with respect to the collection1.dtd: 1.The Value element is not defined in the DTD. 2.The attribute "Publisher" within the Published element should be "publisher", as per the DTD. 3.Although Notes is a valid element for a Book, it is not valid for a CD, according to the DTD. Am I missing something? Is there some buried option that I have to enable to get IE5 to consult my DTD? I've confirmed that it is _looking_ for the right DTD; when I change the DOCTYPE line so that the reference is a non-existent file, IE5 does complain. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to complete this example for my next article for WDVL (below). - Ken Sall ksall@xxxxxxx, kensall@xxxxxxxx, ken@xxxxxxxx - Century Computing Division http://www.cen.com/ - AppNet, Inc. http://www.appnet.net/ - XML at Web Developers Virtual Lib http://WDVL.com/Authoring/Languages/XML/ - NG-HTML: Next Generation HTML http://www.cen.com/ng-html/ - MW3: Motif on the World Wide Web http://www.cen.com/mw3/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
