Hi. Clarification on what I am trying to do is this:
I have a Document, but I need to validate it against a DTD.
So, I convert it into a String and feed the String into a StringReader.
The StringReader is passed in as the parameter for creating a SaxReader.
// convert dom4j Document to String
StringReader docIn = null;
docIn = new StringReader(exportDocumentToString(doc));
// read stringified document with validation turned on for SaxReader
instance
boolean validateXML = true;
SAXReader saxReader = new SAXReader(validateXML);
try{
saxReader.read(docIn);
}
catch(DocumentException ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}
The Document's looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE doc PUBLIC "-//MiniEmily//DTD Standing XML Article V1.0//EN"
"StandingXML.dtd"><doc><processinfo><timestamp>Wed Feb 19 14:09:00 GMT
2003</timestamp>

org.dom4j.DocumentException: null Nested exception: null
at org.dom4j.io.SAXReader.read(SAXReader.java:342)
Nested exception:
java.net.MalformedURLException
at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:613)
at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:476)
I've put the StandingXML.dtd where the calling class gets compiled to, but
to no avail. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Portia

BTW if you look at your document via

does it look right?

So is there a file called "standingXML" on your file system somewhere? Is
it
in the current directory, along with the DTD?

XML doesn't use the classpath by default to load XML files. If you want to
use the classpath or class loader mechanism then you need to pass in a URL
yourself.
e.g.
URL url = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("standingXML.xml");
SAXReader reader = new SAXReader();
Document doc = reader.read( url );
