Bad text.

This type of errors indicate that the document contains PCDATA but it is not good. Here are typical examples of this error.

  1. PCDATA appears where no text is allowed at all. For example: 
    
 <html>
   <head> ... </head>
   ** invalid text **
   <body> ... </body>
 </html>
  2. text was not a correct value for the given datatype. For example, 
    
 <!-- when "integer" is expected -->
 <length> five </length>

Usually, the user can fix this error by removing or chaning the text.

MSV validates text after it collects the whole string. That means MSV does not validate text in the SAX's characters callback. As a result, this error is reported after the next start tag or end tag is found.

For example, in the above example, the error is reported when MSV reads <body>(start tag) and </length> (end tag) respectively.
