Validation Errors<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've read most of the information on validation
in the archives but I still have a problem with validating a document.
</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a valid XML document & corrosponding
DTD but I keep on getting errors when I am trying to build a document from it
with valid being set to true. I noticed that the xercies.jar file must
be at the proper spot in my classpath (before any other parsers), which is
done.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Do you know what is going on here? I'm new
to JDOM and I'd really appreciate any help on this one.</FONT></DIV>
