Re : [Caml-list] XML library for validating MathML

[Adrien <camaradetux@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I have encountered a problem with xml-light's dtd supportone year ago.
Basically if you have something name "ABCD" and something else named
"ABCDEF", it will fail. It could be your problem.
Unfortunately I never had time to fix it.

Well, no time to be more precise, I'm already late.
