Newbie Question . . .

[Warwick Bailey <wa...@caret.cam.ac.uk>]

Hi

Just started working with Xindice - a convert already, but one question ....

If I query a simple xml document like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>

.... more tags here

</root>

everything works fine.

But if I include support for namespaces and schemas like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root xmlns="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imscp_v1p1"
    xmlns:imsmd="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imsmd_v1p2"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imscp_v1p1
imscp_v1p1p3.xsd">

.... more tags here

</root>

The the query fails.

I feel like I am mising something obvious, but cannot spot it in the
documentation, other than support for schemas is in future Xindice versions.

Please comment! - how can I query XML documents that include the support for
namespaces and schemas?

With kind thanks

Warwick

I think you have to set the namespace...   I think I saw something
about this in an earlier post.   Best bet is to search the e-mail archives.

HTH,
