What you'll need is what's referred to as a "validating XML processor". In most cases related to web development, this will be either a user's web browser, or a server's XML library. For information on writing XML DTDs, I strongly recommend reading the XML 1.0 Recommendation (http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/). For working examples of XML DTDs in action (or in some cases pretending to be in action) then I suggest the XHTML 1.0 and 1.1 DTDs.

It is worth mentioning, though, that it's not always necessary for an XML document to be valid. It is only required that an XML document be "well-formed (http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#sec-well-formed)".
