AW: xerces 2.0.0 DOCTYPE root "null" error

["Hellmann Peter (ext) ICM RDC IS VDR RD" <Pe...@mch.siemens.de>]

Bernie,
 
instead of the !DOCTYPE line you must specify the schema file in the root
tag of your xml document file like this:
 
<YOURROOTTAG xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
xsi:NamespaceSchemaLocation='dtd/book.xsd'>
 
cheers,
 
Peter

I'm just trying to learn that myself!
 
I'll post if I get to it soon enough.
 
Any other people care to shed some light on this?
 
Rob

Thanks Rob. 

 

Is it possible to use a schema instead of a dtd? How would I specify to use
a schema in this xml?

 

Thanks

Bernie

Hi Bernhard,

 

Where's your:

 

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE bk:book SYSTEM "dtd/book.dtd">

 

?

I'm trying to parse the following xml using xerces 2.0.0 with validation and
namespaceaware turned on. 

 

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- both namespace prefixes are available throughout -->
<bk:book xmlns:bk='urn:loc.gov:books'
         xmlns:isbn='urn:ISBN:0-395-36341-6'>
    <bk:title>Cheaper by the Dozen</bk:title>
    <isbn:number>1568491379</isbn:number>
</bk:book>

 

However I'm getting the following error:

Document root element "html", must match DOCTYPE root "null".

 

Does anybody know how to handle this error?

 

Thanks

Bernie
