I'm trying to find a good XML/Docbook validator that can work in a mixed

"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"; )

The problem I have is that while the docbooks validate fine as soon as I try to
use any of the W3C DTD's they will fail since they use the syntax (for example)

<!ENTITY % ContentType "CDATA"
     -- media type, as per [RFC2045]
     -->

which will fail to parse since the validators think that the ENTITY element is
missing an ending ">" and don't understand the "--" as a comment.


You are trying to mix SGML and XML.
find an XML based XHTML DTD and you should be OK
