Antw: [jdom-interest] DTD problem

[Cagan Senturk]

Judith, thanks for your reply. But that did not fix the problem either,
I even simplified my xml file and dtd further and made them as following:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE skyscout SYSTEM "http://localhost:7700/test.dtd">
<skyscout>
<folder/>
</skyscout>



<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!ELEMENT skyscout (folder)>
<!ELEMENT folder EMPTY>


and this did not work either.

Thanks,
Cagan

Cagan,

you forgot to specify the parent and the title element in your dtd.
And you have to give an attribute list of the folder element.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!ELEMENT skyscout (folder+)>
<!ELEMENT folder  (parent, title)>
<!ATTLIST folder
    id CDATA #IMPLIED>
<!ELEMENT parent EMPTY>
<!ELEMENT title (#PCDATA)>

Instead of <!ELEMENT parent EMPTY> you could, of course, use
<!ELEMENT parent (#PCDATA)>

I am having a weird problem reading in a very simple xml file with a very
basic dtd using a SAXBuilder (validation on, default Xerces parser).

The error message I get is the following:

org.jdom.JDOMException: Document root element "skyscout", must match DOCTYPE
root "skyscout".: Error on line 3 of document
http://localhost:7700/test.xml: Document root element "skyscout", must match
DOCTYPE root "skyscout".

It's being generated by SAXBuilder.java (line 310).

When I use the DOMBuilder, there are no problems.



Here is the content of the test.xml file:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<!DOCTYPE skyscout SYSTEM "http://localhost:7700/test.dtd">

<skyscout>

<folder id="MySkyScout">

<parent/>

<title>My SkyScout</title>

</folder>

</skyscout>



and the test.dtd contains:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<!ELEMENT skyscout (folder+)>

<!ELEMENT folder (#PCDATA)>



Thanks in advance for any help,

Cagan
