Note Submitter: stedis at antartide dot org ---- We do not need to validate XML stream against a DTD as argument in validate() method. If we call a $dom->validate() on a DomDocument we assume that the XML stream contains something like: <!DOCTYPE mystuff SYSTEM "http://nowhere.not/mystuff.dtd"> so that the validation can be successfully completed. If we call validate() AND <!DOCTYPE ...> is missing an exception will throw and validate() will return false. Otherwise validate() will run against the dtd and will return false if the XML strema won't be well-formed. Regards, StediS
