[jdom-interest] problem validating schema with Xerces 1.3.0

[Aleksandar Milanovic]

Hi,

I want to validate a schema using the Xerces 1.3 parser. The parser reports
the following error:

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: General Schema Error: Grammar with uri 2:
http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema , can not found.

 at

java:381)

The document in question starts with:
?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsd:schema
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema"  ...

Can Xerces 1.3 validate schemas at all? The same schema validates fine in
XMLSpy 3.5.

thx

Alex
