When trying to validate a dtd file I kept getting an error saying that
Xerces was not installed. However, I had downloaded the Xerces jars, and
placed them in the correct directory, and was able to validate XML files
without a problem.

I solved this problem by running eclipse with the -clean argument.

Hopefully this is helpful to someone.

Thanks for the tip Mark! It would be a good idea to add this tip to our
Xerces download instructions too
( http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/xml/xercesInf o.xml).

I've added this hint to the instructions.
