	<faq title="Validation">
		<q>How do I turn on validation?</q>
		<a>
			<p>You can turn validation on and off via methods available
			on the SAX2 <code>XMLFilter</code> interface. While only the 
			<code>SAXParser</code> implements the <code>XMLFilter</code>
			interface, the methods required for turning on validation
			are available to both parser classes, DOM and SAX.
			<br/>
            The code snippet below shows how to turn validation on -- assume that <ref>parser</ref>
            is an instance of either
            <code>org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser</code> or
            <code>org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser</code>. <br/><br/>
     		<code>parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true);</code>
