What should a non-validating XML parser report in the below cases:
1)
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<!DOCTYPE test SYSTEM "notexist.dtd">
<test>a&foo;b</test>
2)
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE test SYSTEM "notexist.dtd">
<test>a&foo;b</test>
Should it report that the notexist.dtd could not be loaded, or that
entity foo is undefined, or totally ignore any errors?
