Hi Berin,
Thanks for replying.

I feel that when dom document which holds signature element
is changed , signature becomes invalid.

I tested it like this -

--
Element e1 = sign ( somedom ) ;
Verify(e1);      // signature is verified.

Document doc = documentBuilder.newDocument();
// Now i import signed Signature element  into another document.
org.w3c.dom.Element e2 = (Element)doc.importNode((org.w3c.dom.Node)e1,true);

Verify(e2);      // verification fails now . :(
--

Is this normal ?  Should two documents (w3c.dom.documents)  on sending , 
receiving sides be same ?
and shouldn't verification result be same for both e2 and e1 ?


Also , I have attached the whole document i am trying to verify.
While verifying , i isolate the Signature element from parsed docuement and 
then just call Verify () on it.
Isn't that right ?

Do reply,

thanks,
-Pushya.

I ran java program which serialises documents using 
'stringWriter' and redirected its output to file,
and attached the file.
May be using the stringWriter automatically adds the line feeds.

These are the code fragments i use,

// Verify method.
public boolean Verify(Element e) throws Exception
{
    XMLSignature xmlSignature =
        = new XMLSignature( (Element)e , "" );
         KeyInfo ki = xmlSignature.getKeyInfo();
         X509Certificate cert =
 xmlSignature.getKeyInfo().getX509Certificate(); cert.checkValidity();
        boolean Result = xmlSignature.checkSignatureValue(cert);
        return Result;
   }
