in reply to LibXML and parsing file with DTD

Your XML is valid ... the real issue is that your XPATH for TaxId, Length, Status and ReplacedBy are wrong. Those should be: 

./Item[@Name="TaxId"]

    Thanks,I changed my code as you suggested and still code the same error.

    snippit of new code 

     my($TaxId) = $DocSum->findnodes('./Item[@Name="TaxId"]');
        print OUTFILE $TaxId->to_literal, "\t";

    From the error it looks like it doesn't like any of the xml entities all the way from the top nodes (ie. eSummary, DocSum

    error again 

    No declaration for element eSummaryResult
No declaration for element DocSum        
No declaration for element Id            
No declaration for element Item          
No declaration for attribute Name of element Item
No declaration for attribute Type of element Item

      Hmmm ... what happens if you comment out the validate call?

      -derby

        Thanks! Once I commented out the validate call, it works

        I guess if the validate function doesn't like the xml files then it just dies?
