I'm not exactly sure where this has all gone wrong.\[code\]book.dtd:1: parser error : StartTag: invalid element name<!ELEMENT books_for_sale (book+)> ^book.dtd:1: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document<!ELEMENT books_for_sale (book+)> ^\[/code\]Here is my DTD file\[code\]<!ELEMENT books_for_sale (book+)><!ELEMENT book (book_id, title, author, co_author_name, editor_name, illustrator_name, language, ISBN, publisher, publisher_date, genre, subject, category, file_size, pages, price, payment_method)><!ELEMENT book_id (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT title (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT author (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT co_author_name (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT editor_name (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT illustrator_name (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT language (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT ISBN (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT publisher (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT publisher_date (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT genre (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT subject (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT category (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT file_size (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT pages (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT price (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT payment_method (#PCDATA)>\[/code\]Not sure if the combination of html and xml is done properly.
