User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016 Additionally to check XML files for wellformedness, Mozilla should check them for validity. Invalid files basically may get displayed. There should be available these settings: (o) Do not check for validity <--default because current setting ( ) Check for validity but do not warn about invalid XML ( ) Check for validity and warn (e.g. a warning icon) about invalid XML ( ) Check for validity and display a validity error instead of the file for invalid XML This setting of course can only apply to XML Documents with a Schema or Document Type Declaration. This would help much in web development. Additionally there should be a Tools->Web-Development->Validate Menu Item to run the validator and see all validity errors if there are any or a "this file is valid" message if it is so. To increase speed even more than the browser's Cache, there should be a configurable XML Catalog for the EntityResolver, where one can assign new System Identifiers to Public Identifiers to be used instead of their original Public Identifiers to access the local file system or lan instead of the WWW. So one configures "-//W3C//DTD XHTML Basic 1.0//EN" to be "/usr/local/share/dtds/w3c/xhtml-basic/xhtml-basic10.dtd" instead of its original system Id ("http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-basic/xhtml-basic10.dtd"). Mozilla should come with the DTDs and a predifined Catalog for XHTML Basic, XHTML 1.0, XHTML 1.1, SVG 1.0, MathML 2.0 and more when appropriate. I fine graned setting of validity checking for different Document Types distinguished for instance Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Bug 69799 and bug bug 22942 more or less depend on having a validating parser, but there doesn't seem to be a metabug for adding a validating XML parser to Mozilla. Implementors looking to work on this may be interested in <URL:http://xanthes.mozdev.org/>.
