System.XML performs only checks for the well-formedness of Documents,
not for validity. You need a Schema for XSLT wich defines Regular
Expressions to check for "syntax errors inside attributes" (I think you

An other, easier way is to try to execute the transformation inside a
try-catch-block, if an error occurs, you made errors...
