Are there any possibilities to validate the below appended XML against DTD??!!
First; This question is off topic; this is XSL-List, not a forum for
general discussion of matters XML-ish. Please take future questions
about XML (that are not also related to XSL) to a more appropriate forum.
Here the delimiters are makes difference.
XML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
[address]
[name][fnm]Charles[:fnm][snm]Steve[:snm][:name]
[street]120, 1st cross[:street]
[addline]2nd Block[:addline]
[city]London[:city]
[country]UK[:country]
[zip]000-111[:zip]
[:address]
Second: this is not an XML file, and XML tools will not validate it
against a DTD because it is NOT XML. (In SGML it is possible to
change the markup delimiters; in XML it is not.) If you really want
to work with files like the one you describe I suggest looking
into SGML tools. If you want to use the (much larger) set of XML
tools your data must be XML; which means that you must use
< > and </ > to start and end your tags.
