| 12 | <div><p>Validating a DTD file lets you verify that it is well formed and |
| 13 | does not contain any errors.</p><div class="skipspace"><p>The following instructions were written for the Resource perspective, |
| 14 | but they will also work in many other perspectives. </p> |
| 15 | <p>To validate |
| 16 | a DTD, follow these steps:</p> |
| 17 | </div> |
| 18 | <div class="p"><span>In the Navigator view, right-click the DTD and click <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Validate DTD File</span></span>.</span></div> |
| 19 | <div class="skipspace">A dialog opens, indicating if the DTD file was successfully validated |
| 20 | or not. If the file is invalid, any errors will appear in the Problems view. |
| 21 | <p><b>Note</b>: If you receive an error message indicating |
| 22 | that the Problems view is full, you can increase the number of error messages |
| 23 | allowed by selecting <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Properties</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Validation</span></span> from the project's pop-up menu and specifying the maximum number |
| 24 | of error messages allowed. You might have to select the <span class="uicontrol">Override |
| 25 | validation preferences</span> check box in order to enable the <span class="uicontrol">Maximum |
| 26 | number of validation messages</span> field</p> |
| 27 | <p>You can set up project's |
| 28 | properties so that different types of project resources are automatically |
| 29 | validated when you save them. From a project's pop-up menu select <span class="uicontrol">Properties</span>, |
| 30 | then select <span class="uicontrol">Validation</span>. Any validators you can run |
| 31 | against your project will be listed in the Validation page. </p> |
