Ursula, > for my work to create an XML-Schema to validate an > RDF-Document i got following problem: I think the short answer is you can't use the xsi:type attribute in RDF/XML in this way, because RDF/XML doesn't give any special treatment to the xsi: namespace. There was some discussion of this topic starting here: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-interest/2002Aug/0122.html You may be able to devise W3C XML Schemas to validate at least some forms or "profiles" of RDF/XML (I haven't tried!), but I think you'd have to engineer your XML Schemas so that they do not require the use of xsi:type in the instance document.
