There is no model for when validity errors are guaranteed to be fired. A parser is free to fire them when it detects them, or even to save them up to the end of the document and fire them all at once. (Indeed, validity errors like undefined ID *can't* be detected until the end.) > The problem occurs when someone sends a document that violates the dtd rule. I suggest switching from a SAX to a DOM model. You can use my DOMParser (http://www.ccil.org/~cowan/XML) to walk the DOM tree after it's generated. -- Schlingt dreifach einen Kreis um dies! || John Cowan <jcowan@r...> Schliesst euer Aug vor heiliger Schau, || http://www.reutershealth.com Denn er genoss vom Honig-Tau, || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Und trank die Milch vom Paradies. -- Coleridge (tr.
