"Validity" means that the document has a DOCTYPE
declaration that points to a DTD and the document conforms to the
declarations in that DTD. Your sample shows no reference to a DTD, so validity
is not an issue. It is well-formed, which is why parsers have no problem with
it.

Hi all,
According to the XML specification, I believe the
following nesting structure to be invalid in XML. However, rxp on my
Windows machine issues no warnings to me when parsed. Is this in fact
invalid?
<?xml
version="1.1"?>
<library>
<book>
<title>Book
Name</title>
<chapters>
<name>first
chapter</name>
<name>second</name>
...
<name>last</name>
<subsection>
<name>I
expect this to be illegal, since name is defined in chapters, and also somewhere else in its content, namely
subsection.</name>
</subsection>
</chapters>
</book>
</library>
Thanks very much,
Dan
