OK, that's clear. Thanks!

I'll do so... I've already had a glance at it.
Now i know at least how less i know about URI's...

Hm, maybe i've got something wrong.
I try to validate the document while parsing:

  ctxt = xmlCreateIOParserCtxt(<snip/>);
  ctxt->validate = 1;
  xmlParseDocument(ctxt);
  docPtr = ctxt->myDoc;

and it seems that ctxt->myDoc is NULL before parsing, so

  ctxt = xmlCreateIOParserCtxt(<snip/>);
  ctxt->validate = 1;
  ctxt->myDoc->URL = "C:/test/data/Test.xml"

will crash.
Forgive my ignorance, but i'm new to libxml and it seems that i've lack of
some basics.


Ciao, Markus
