HTML 4.01 DTD validation problem [message #57620]

Hi,

I suspect my problem is most likely a FAQ, but I still could not find an
answer...

I'm working on a schema that includes the HTML 4.01 DTD.

If I indicate 'http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd' as 'Schema location'
for the <import> directive, I get the following error:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd is an invalid XML schema file

If I make a local copy of this DTD and try to validate it, I get the
following error:
The declaration for the entity "ContentType" must end with '>'. ... line
81 ...
And line 81 contains a comment inside !ENTITY declaration.

I have added Xerces 2.6.2 to my configuration as prescribed by page
http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/xml/xercesInf o.xml

I have Eclipse 3.1.0 Build id: 200412162000 on Windows.
My JVM: 1.5.0_01
My XSD: Version: 2.1.0 Build id: 200502100800
My EMF: Version: 2.1.0 Build id: 200502100800

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Sergey

Sergey,

A .dtd is not a .xsd and won't even parse as XML. You will need to find
the .xsd rather than the .dtd.
