Thanks for taking a stab at this, unfortunately I knew that already. Just for those looking for the information button on 9.x, this was only added in 10.x.

 

 

I think that the point that I'm making is that it's not clear.

 

 

For example, Malformed XML is typically XML with bad syntax, however the ASM article metioned above seem to suggest that it isn't just bad syntax but also bad grammar which can determined by validating against a schema, in which case it is the same as saying that it doesn't comply with the schema - ie a schema violation error.

 

 

If this logic holds true then 'Malformed XML data' and 'XML data does not comply with schema or WSDL document' is the same.

 

 

Thanks again.
