Parser validation question

Is there anything else I need to do to turn validation on?

I get the error:
    org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException: Feature:
http://xml.org/sax/features/vali
dation
    at
org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl.setFeature(SAXParserFacto
ryImpl.java:100)
        at com.bluemartini.test.xml.test.main(test.java:34)
SAXException error

If I remove line 26:

saxFactory.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",true);
validation does not seem to work i.e. my attached test case runs fine
when it parses
an invalid document.

I am using xerces -1_3_0.

Thanks in advance,
Eva

You need to set this feature on the parser, not the saxFactory.

HTH,
