[Kris Vanhoutte] In the mean time, I checked out some literature and there I read that <quote>The XML-processor isn't required to do anything with the URL [..]. There doesn't even have to be a document at the location it points to. Specifuing the URL is a formality to provide additional information about the namespace, [..] </quote>. This makes perfect sense, because the difference between the XML:lang and other namespaces is the <xs:import> element. Could it be that import actually imports (sort of copies) the xml.xsd on your harddisk? [Tom P] The namespace URI is just a unique string that does not have to be retrieved, you you are asking the processor to use an actual schema document at a specific location (the xml.xsd file). The import statement tells to processor to retrieve that particular schema an assign to it the specified namespace. Cheers, Tom P
