Re: MSXML4: how to validate an XML against an XSD just using IE?

[Martin Gudgin <marting@develop.com>]

Here is some jscript I use outside of IE. Maybe it will give you enough info
to get it working inside an HTML page;


if (WScript.Arguments.length < 2)
{
   WScript.echo("MSXML XML Schema Validation Utility\n");
   WScript.echo("usage: xsdms inputFile schemaFile");
   WScript.Quit(1);
}

var source = WScript.Arguments.Item(0);
var schema = WScript.Arguments.Item(1);
var schemaSource = new ActiveXObject ( "MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0" );

// load the source document
if (schemaSource.load(schema))
{
  // extract the targetNamespace attribute from the schema using XPath
  schemaSource.setProperty ( "SelectionLanguage", "XPath" );
  schemaSource.setProperty ( "SelectionNamespaces",
"xmlns:a='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'" );
  var tnsattr = schemaSource.selectSingleNode (
"/a:schema/@targetNamespace" );
  var nsuri = tnsattr.nodeValue;

  // add the schema to the cache
  var schemaCache = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.XMLSchemaCache.4.0");
  schemaCache.add ( nsuri, schemaSource );

  // attach the schema cache to a DOM
  var xmlSource = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0");
  xmlSource.schemas = schemaCache;
  xmlSource.async = false;

  // load the xml document document
  if (xmlSource.load(source))
  {
    WScript.echo("success: document conforms to DTD/Schema");
  }
  else
  {
    WScript.echo("### error: " + xmlSource.parseError.reason);
    WScript.echo("### source: " + xmlSource.parseError.srcText);
    WScript.echo("### line: " + xmlSource.parseError.line);
  }
}
else
{
  WScript.echo("### error: " + schemaSource.parseError.reason);
  WScript.echo("### source: " + schemaSource.parseError.srcText);
  WScript.echo("### line: " + schemaSource.parseError.line);
}
