Validation of xHTML with Dom Parser

[Heinrich Prokop]

Hy

I would like to check the validity of my xHTML Document. Here is the code
for it which i use

private static DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();

static {
// turn on validation
try {
parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true);
parser.setErrorHandler(new ValidityErrorReporter());
}
catch (SAXNotRecognizedException e) {
System.err.println(
"Installed XML parser cannot validate; checking for well-formedness
instead...");
}
catch (SAXNotSupportedException e) {
System.err.println(
"Cannot turn on validation here; checking for well-formedness
instead...");
}

}

The problem is that I get the following error message "Declaration of
'html' not found." Should I include a xHTML scheme? The example is from the
following homepage

http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/slides/sd2000east/dom/59.html

Should be correct but it doesn't work hope you can help me

Thanks

What that's telling you is that it couldn't find the definition for
the html tag. Probable cause: the DTD (DOCTYPE) in your document is
incorrect.
