It would be helpful if you could be more specific which parsers you used and what kind of errors they reported. Typical misunderstanding is to try to parse HTML DTDs with XML parsers. HTML DTDs are SGML DTDs and those are not compatible with XML DTDs, thus those are guaranteed to fail. Regards, -- Masayasu Ishikawa / mimasa@w3.org W3C - World Wide Web Consortium
