You might want to look at one of the DTD to HTML if your need is for
presentation.

I use emacs, dtd-mode from Tony Graham for editing DTD's.
Validation I'd take as a separate issue, using your favourite
parser.
dtd-mode has most of the features I need.
Downside? No wysiwyg mode. That's just frustrating working
with DTD's.
