Inga, Have you tried to include both a DTD and Schema declaration in the same xml source document ? Xerces generates a ClassCastException.
Something like: <!DOCTYPE root-element SYSTEM 'root-element.dtd'> <root-element xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="your schema address"> Stefan Lecho. -----Original Message----- From: Inga Schuetz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2001 9:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: XML Schema Validation Hello Sam, your XML-Dokument has to look like this <root-element xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="your schema address"> Your schema starts with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema";> Now you have to set some properties for your Xerces Parser.
