In the validation process, your xml file is temporarily stored to disk, and 1355790115420.xml was the assigned file name. We may remove this information from the error message, as it’s indeed confusing.
let $db := app:open-db($lang)
let $topic-validation := <ul>{
for $x in $db/*[name() = ('topic', 'media')]
return try {
validate:dtd($x, $app:dtd-topic)
} catch bxerr:BXVA0001 {
<li>File {$x/base-uri()} doesn't validate against the DTD.</li>
}
}
</ul>
let $menu-validation := <ul>{
for $x in $db/*[name() = 'menu']
return try {
validate:dtd($x, $app:dtd-menu)
} catch bxerr:BXVA0001 {
<li>File {$x/base-uri()} doesn't validate against the DTD.</li>
}
return
if($topic-validation or $menu-validation)
then <div>{$topic-validation}{$menu-validation}</div>
else <ul><li style="color:green">All menus and topics validate against the DTDs.</li></ul>
