The validator should not be reporting any errors for: http://qa-dev.w3.org/wmvs/HEAD/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.croczilla.com%2Fsvg%2Fsamples%2Fchem1%2Fchem1.svg&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline
Well, an SVG Validator maybe not, an XML DTD Validator must report an error...
Hi Jonathan, I'm marking this invalid as we currently don't claim to do anything but DTD validation and the document is not valid XML as the DTD does not declare the xmlns:xhtml attribute. We will address this later when improving our overall validation system to support more than dumb DTD validation. Thanks for your report.
