[jdom-interest] org.jdom.JDOMException

[Philip Nelson]

You are telling DOMBuilder to validate and you don't have a dtd.  

1 - use SaxBuilder instead, it's much faster
2 - don't validate unless you have a dtd.  You still validate that the document
is well formed, even with validate set to false, because that's just the way
xml is ;-)
