Thread: XML Type validates against xml schema?

Poking around in the 8.5 Devel Documentation section 8.13.1, the XML Type, I noticed that:

 "The xml type does not validate input values against a document type declaration (DTD), even when the input value specifies a DTD"

I suppose the same is true in the case that the XML should validate against an (xml) schema?

thanks,

The xml type does not do XML Schema validation.
