      <h1>Controlling Validation from Java</h1>
      <p>Schema validation can be controlled either using the standard JAXP Java interface, or using
Saxon's own <b>s9api</b> interface. The two approaches are described in the following sections.
The main advantage of using JAXP is that it is portable; the main advantage of s9api is that it
is better integrated across the range of Saxon XML processing interfaces.</p>
