+
+<para>This plugin checks the current file. A list of warnings and errors
+will appears at the bottom of &kate;'s main window. You can click on an error message
+to jump to the corresponding place in the file. If the file has a <quote>DOCTYPE</quote>
+the DTD given with this doctype will be used to check the file for validity. The
+DTD is expected at a position relative to the current file, &eg; if the doctype
+refers to <quote>DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd</quote> and the file is <filename>/home/peter/test.xml</filename>
+the DTD is expected to be located at <filename>/home/peter/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd</filename>.
+However, remote DTDs specified via http are supported.</para>
+
+<para>If the file has no doctype it will be checked for well-formedness.</para>
+
+<para>To learn more about &XML; check out the <ulink url="http://www.w3.org/XML/"> official W3C &XML; pages</ulink>.</para>
+
+<para>Internally this plugin calls the external command <command>xmllint</command>, which 
+is part of libxml2. If this command is not correctly installed on your system, the plugin
+will not work.</para>
+
+<note><para>A temporary file needs to be written to the same folder as the file
+that should be checked, so you need to have write access to that folder.</para></note>
+
+<para>To load this plugin open &kate;s configuration dialog under <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu>
