This object exposes no way to turn off validation, but it does make use of Digester's facility for registering DTDs against copies in the classpath. If your file uses one of the DTDs listed in the"registrations" array in ValidatorResources (see source at above URL) then you won't have any problem. From a brief glance, I wonder if some new registrations need to be added? If you have time to check, perhaps you could file a bug against commons-validator at http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla
For the near term, the suggestion of specifying an alternate local URL for the DTD is probably best.

Looks like struts, when loaded, is trying to validate those files against the DTD... and if by mistake my internet connection goes down, then code Won\t work. (meaning, I am using WAS Studio, and it complaints that it cannot validate the two files... and without tht I cannot build my webapp..)
Any help?
