XML is well formed and even validate in XML-SPY application if you add
following DTD on top of below mentioned XML
Are you sure the XML is well-formed, and that XML Spy is correct?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16" standalone="yes"?>
<!DOCTYPE booklist [
<!ELEMENT booklist (book*)>
<!ELEMENT book (टाईटल, author+, 𪘚)>
<!ELEMENT टाईटल (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT author (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT 𪘚 (#PCDATA)>

I just want to know whether Xerces support surrogate chars in tag name
or not. As I have seen that XML-SPY is validating above mentioned XML.
Well, I pointed you to the XML recommendation, which describes the grammar
for element names, and includes a list of the Unicode code points allowed.
If you look at that, you'll see that there are no Unicode code points
encoded in UTF-16 as surrogate pairs that are allowed as name characters in
XML 1.0.
Since I don't have your original document (pasting it into an email message
doesn't work), I can't say for sure what the actual bytes are. However, I
did copy-and-paste the text from your reply, and was able to reproduce the
error message (when I saved the document as UTF-8 and updated the XML
declaration). In addition, three other XML parsers also reported that the
tag name in the DTD on line 4 is not a valid XML name.
Perhaps you should contact Altova and ask them why their XML parser does
not reject documents that are not well-formed.
