[XML-SIG] validate and handle content at the same time.

[Remy C. Cool]

I still can't get the xmlproc parser to validate and process the 
content in one pass. Am I doing something wrong or can't xmlproc do 
both at the same time.

When  parser.setFeature(feature_validation, 1) is set ... the DTD is 
checked against the XML file but closing tags are not being printed. 
When parser.setFeature(feature_validation, 0) is set or the line is 
commented out, closing tags are printed but the xml file is not 
validated against the DTD. How can I get both ... a working 
endElement handler and DTD validation?
