$sxml = @simplexml_load_string($xml);
if ($sxml === false) {
    // do what you will about the problem.

OR

$php_errormsg = '';
if (!$dom = @DOMDocument::loadXML($xml)) {
    // $php_errormsg contains error info.
} elseif (!@$dom->schemaValidate('schema_file.xsd')) {
    // $php_errormsg contains error info.
}
