Hi all,

I am trying to validate my xml schema and it's not working. The error that keeps coming up is "There is no schema or DTD associated with this document..." I am trying to validate it against an xsd document. This is for a project at my university and I am in the process of learning xml, but I can't get past this. Please help me! Many many thanks in return!

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="PoliticalLeader.xsd" media="screen"?>

Hi,

It looks like you've accidentally associated the schema as a stylesheet instead of a schema.
You must associate a schema with your document: menu > Document > Schema > Associate Schema and browse for the schema. The schema type will be automatically detected and selected in the combo. This will specify the schema URI and namespace on the root of the XML document.
e.g.

Code: Select all

<report xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

     xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="PoliticalLeader.xsd">

Regards,
Adrian
