Re: Validate DOM document in memory using DOM level 3

Hi Michael / All,

 

Thank you for your reply. I have successfully revalidate my in-memory DOM against a schema using the normalizeDocument() in my test progam.

From the article:

http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-keydom2.html

I know that if I want to use the revalidating feature of DOM level3, the node must be created using the namespace-aware method, like createElementNS(). But in my project, the code is already there, and the node is created using the Level 1 method, that is createElement(). I still want to use this new feature of DOM level 3, so is there any better way to by pass my problem? Or do you have any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Mike
