Axis does not provide schema validation by default. You can use Castor to validate incoming XML. Check out this link

Axis does no validation by default, and provides a DOM (Spec2) representation of the document that I cannot re-validate. So is there any possibilty to turn on validation for the Axis Parser and tell it which schemaLocation to use? Thanks a lot, Michel Zedler
