Perhaps I don't exactly understand the level of support that I am supposed to get with 
intellij 
and XML.  Here are some things that I can't seem to get to work.  If its not supposed 
to 
work, please let me know, and I will stop trying.  If it is, then I suppose the 
obvious question 
is what am I doing wrong.

1) Validation of XML.  I'm able to validate the DTD, but not the XML against the XML.  
I'm 
using the in-line notation, rather than referencing an external DTD.  For example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!DOCTYPE foo [

<!ELEMENT foo (bar*)>
<!ELEMENT bar EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST bar barattr CDATA #REQUIRED
          barattr2 CDATA #REQUIRED>
]>

<foo>
    <bar barattr="x"/>
</foo>

I would expect to get an error about barattr2 is required, but not present.

2) I would expect that when I do a ctrl-space, or shift-ctrl-space, that the set of 
tags specified 
in the DTD would be available in a list.

3) I would expect that ctrl-p on an element would show me the attributes definedin the 
DTD.

4) I would expect that ctrl-b on an element would move the cursor to the definition of 
the 
element in the DTD.

5) I would expect that auto-formatting an xml-file would move it to a standard form, 
for 
example:

<foo> <bar barattr="x"/> </foo>

should become

<foo>
    <bar barattr="x"/>
</foo>

I don't know if I am being unreasonable, or if I just don't know how to use the 
functionality.  
Assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike
