The error message says it all: You're using an HTML parser to parse XHTML :-)

The "-domfactory" argument only sets the factory for the DOM "dialect" (HTML, 
WML, VoiceML, ...) that will be used in the generated documents, not the 
parser that's used to parse the *ML sources. You'll have to set the parser as 
well, because XMLC by default assumes HTML content if the file name ends in 
".html". Adding "-parser xerces" to your command line should do the trick.

Hope this helps,
