Re: [xml-dev] The prefix "fgdc" for element "fgdc:fgdc" is not bound

You can still use a XSD to validate an instance if that XSD doesn't
declare any target namespace. For example :-


<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">

<xs:element name="Root">
    <xs:complexType>
        <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element name="firstChild" type="xs:string"/>
            <xs:element name="firstSibling" type="xs:integer"/>
        </xs:sequence>
    </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

</xs:schema>

you can determine that this instance in not schema valid :-

<Root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Nonamepsace_Schema.xsd">
	<firstChild>String</firstChild>
	<firstSibling>this should be an integer to be valid</firstSibling>
</Root>

If the NUnit test-results.xsd schema specifies *no* namespace, then the types it declares are in *no* namespace, is that right? How does a schema-aware parser use them, if at all? Does it simply fake it (i.e., if you were foolish enough to declare types in the non-namespace, I guess I'll have to bail you out)?
