I may have missed some point in your post, but what exactly is the link to XSLT or XSL-FO? If you have have DTD related questions, it is probably best to ask them on a DTD mailing list.

Hello,
My application connects with a mobile-service-provider's server and receives XML via HTTP POST. I extract the data from XML and send an appropriate response
back to the server.
I have been given a set of DTDs by the mobile-service-provider.
The XML I receive/send via HTTP Post must adhere to these DTDs.
My question is - is it necessary to validate the XML I receive from
mobile-service-provider against the DTDs? Or can I assume that - since the XML was created by the same source who created the DTD; the XML
would definitely adhere to the required rules set in the DTD?
The reason is - I would be receiving loads and loads of such XML thro HTTP POST; if I am going to validate each such POST request against
DTDs; it might be a huge performance issue!
Regards,
Deepak.
