[oXygen-user] olinkdb and target.db Problems

[George Cristian Bina]

Hello Chris,

As I said in v7 it will be possible to disable the DTD validation when a 
schema is also specified (in v6 that was possible only if an XML Schema 
was also specified). Do you need to disable the DTD validation even in 
cases when a schema of some sort is not specified and there is only a 
DTD specified?

Best regards,
George
