Schema validation error messages

["Peters, Chris" <Ch...@egg.com>]

Firstly, sorry if this is a common question, I have only just subscribed and
all the message archives seem to be down.

I am using Xerces 2.2.1 to parse and validate an xml doc against its schema
correctly. By setting an error handler I can see the errors that are thrown
when the xml is invalid, but the errors seem pretty strange to me. For
example: 

	cvc-datatype-valid.1.2.1: '' is not a valid 'float' value.
	cvc-type.3.1.3: The value '' of element 'pia_number' is not valid.
	cvc-datatype-valid.1.2.1: '' is not a valid 'float' value.
	cvc-type.3.1.3: The value '' of element
'percentage_of_main_commission' is not valid.

There seems to be two errors thrown for each validation error?? Why doesn't
the first one mention the name of the field either??

If anyone has a better way of handling these errors to return something more
meaningful I would be very interested.

Cheers,

Chris
