Excuse me, but if you set the parser so it does DTD _and_ schema
validation, then the document must be both DTD-valid and schema valid?
Well, not exactly. With the dynamic validation feature turned on, the
document will only be DTD validated if it has a DTD. Similarly a schema
(more specifically an element declaration for the validation root) must be
found for schema validation to be performed. If the document has both a
DTD and schema it will be DTD validated and schema validated. If it has
neither then no validation is performed.
Sure, there are four possibilities:
[DTD, no schema] DTD validation only
[no DTD, schema] schema validation only
[no DTD, no schema] no validation
[DTD, schema] both DTD and schema validation.
So, to be more precise, is the latter possibility one that anyone wants?
It seems more likely in the latter case, what people would want is
closer to what "http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities"; does.
