That's surprising. Are you sure?
Probably you used http://levana.de/foons as the default namespace.

DTD validation does not work with documents using namespaces.
Use relaxNG (or the subset of XML schema libxml supports) or
add the prefixes (and namespace attributes) to your dtd
(which is a hack, since namespace prefixes should be meaningless outside
the xml instance).

James Clarks trang is a dtd to relaxNG converter, so you would just have to
add the namespace to the relaxNG schema.
