Consider an XML file called intro.xml and a document type definition (DTD) file intro.dtd as follows:

intro.xml

<?xml version = \"1.0\"?>

<!DOCTYPE myMessage SYSTEM \"intro.dtd\"›

<myMessage>

<message>Welcome to XML</message>

</myMessage>

intro.dtd

<! ELEMENT myMessage (message)>

<! ELEMENT message (#PCDATA)>

A validating parser will classify intro.xml as

(A)

Well-formed and validated

(B)

Well-formed but not validated

(C)

Validated but not well-formed


Answer: (A)

Explanation:

The difference between well-formed and valid XML is simple: Valid XML has a DTD associated with it and has been verified against all the rules contained in the DTD in addition to being well-formed. Merely well-formed XML, on the other hand, is not necessarily valid, although it may be. In order to know the rules for a well formed document click here
