Hi, Thanks for giving me a ray of hope now. Thanks very much indeed :)
So does this mean i need to create a DTD file as well for the XML docs that im creating ? because currently i only have a schema for the XML docs. Is there any tool/link that can help me converting from a Schema to a DTD ? i actually did a search on it but all i could find was DTD to Schema converters and not the other way round. Ok worst case scenario - i make the DTD myself. Then i need to add the following code to the top of my XML docs...am i right ? <?xml version="1.0" ?> <!DOCTYPE SYSTEM "MyDTD.dtd"> <myRootElement xmlns='http://www.xyz.com/ContentMetaData' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xsi:schemaLocation='http://www.xyz.com/ContentMetaData ContentMetaData.xsd'> Which essentially means i will be using a DTD as well as the Schema for my validation process ?

You do it in exactly the same way. By which I mean: with a DTD. The XML Schema validation operates against the XML infoset, after entities and character references are expanded. Use a DTD at the 'front' end of processing (so to speak) to handle entities, and a schema at the 'back' for constraining the element and attribute structure. I hope this helps. -C. M.
