Good point.  I guess we wanted that form to conform to
the DTD from the start, not just validate the
document.  So, maybe sending a shell of an XML file
but have the code (perl or javascript) be aware of the
DTD is all.  

I have found this but this is a desktop ap. and is not
OSS:

Maybe I'll start looking at javascript a little.
