Dan,

In reference to your last note,

<>Assuming you have fed OxygenXML the schemas for our various document types, .<>..

and

<>I hate figuring out how to get XML editors to use my schemas ...

I share that sentiment, as I get deeper into namespaces and schemas ( and deeper
fees like the right word at this point ).


OK, enough metaphor. Should I assume from your comments, that the Studio editors
pro grammatically enforce schema constraints and namespace conventions without the
need to declare them in the conforming documents?


Probably due in large part to my unfamiliarity with the xml universe, I am having difficulty
validating the following file from orbeon.war in a general-purpose xml editor.


  \WEB-INF\resources\examples\xforms\xforms-credit-card\view.xml

You mentioned that 'for xpl, log4j.xml, and the page-flow.xml, your preference is the Studio
editors. However, xhtml and xform documents are written in what I assumed were vanilla w3c
XML markup. languages, which you did not mention as 'better with Studio'. I hope they are
easier to handle in studio.


I have discovered that there are 'strict', 'transitional' and 'frames' dialects of xhtml and xforms,
depending on what other namespace vocabularies are mixed in a given document. That does
not sound like robust vocabulary definition to this confessed java geek. I thought the idea was
to have one xhtml schema, one xform schema, etc. and then to reference the schemas into
a conforming document that mixed more than one vocabulary, not to generate a blended schema
for each combination of vocabularies.


Have I got this right about the dialects of xhtml, etc ?

Incidentally, these validation problems are not seriously hanging me up. As long as the files are valid to
OXF my project trundles along smoothly. My concern is setting up OXF development practices.in prep
for taking on one or two developer/support staff.
