XML Validator
=============

[](#xml-validator)

Validate your XML easily. The main purpose is to validate the XML to a XSD schema, but (basic) validation without a schema is possible too.

```
$validator = new Validator();

// Validate with a XSD schema
$result = $validator->validate('books.xml', 'books.xsd');

// Or validate without a XSD schema
$result = $validator->validate('books.xml');

// Retrieve any errors
if (!$result->isValid()) {
    $errors = $result->getErrors();
}
```
