Why do I keep getting "java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol"
<p>I've tried all different kind of combinations but I just don't get what it wants from me:</p>

<pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?&gt;&lt;ds&gt;&lt;ds&gt;...

<p>I've looked at other questions but I don't get what is wrong with my XML.</p>

<p>This is the full XML (with some plain text removed):</p>

<pre class="lang-xml prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?&gt;
&lt;ds&gt;
    &lt;ds&gt;
        &lt;cue&gt;ABGB : §§ 786 , 810 , 812 &lt;/cue&gt;Die Kosten ... &lt;cue&gt;Anmerkung : &lt;/cue&gt;
        ... &lt;cue&gt;Bestätigung von &lt;/cue&gt;7 
        &lt;Relation bewertung="1"&gt;Ob 56/10a &lt;/Relation&gt;= Zak 
        &lt;Relation bewertung="1"&gt;2010/773 , 440 &lt;/Relation&gt;. 
    &lt;/ds&gt;
&lt;/ds&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>The producing code:</p>

<pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>DocumentBuilderFactory icFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder icBuilder;

Document parse = null;

try {
    icBuilder = icFactory.newDocumentBuilder();             
    parse = icBuilder.parse(xmlString);
} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SAXException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
</code></pre>
