Luciano,

 

The schema URL doesn't seem correct

 

xsi:schemaLocation="file://d//ibm//dev//workspaces//dominoportal//dominoadapter booksextended.xsd"

 

it should be

 

xsi:schemaLocation="file:///d:/ibm//dev//workspaces//dominoportal//dominoadapter%20booksextended.xsd"

 

The schema you are using doesn't have any targetNamespace so you should use

 

xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="file:///d:/ibm//dev//workspaces//dominoportal//dominoadapter%20booksextended.xsd">

 

your xml document set the default namespace

 

xmlns="http://www.books.org/"

 

assuming no targetNamespace is used you should remove it

 

After

 

Ivan

Subject: Associating an XML Schema with a XML Document

I have the following Schema and XML files...

I want to specify that the xml is based on the schema defined as file : booksextended.xsd

Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong on the xml file ?

 

XML Schema :

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
    <xsd:element name="author" type="xsd:string"/>

        <xsd:complexType>
            <xsd:sequence>
                <xsd:element ref="author"/>
                <xsd:element ref="title"/>
                <xsd:choice maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0">
                    <xsd:element ref="publisher"/>
                    <xsd:element ref="supplier"/>
                </xsd:choice>
                <xsd:element ref="price"/>
            </xsd:sequence>
            <xsd:attribute name="isbn" type="xsd:string" use="optional"/>
            <xsd:attribute name="reference" type="xsd:string" use="optional"/>

        </xsd:complexType>
