Hi,
I would like to discuss test case 2.4.a.
In my opinion, the xforms instance document shouldn't validate since it declares a default namespace on the top level of the document and therefore every child node is within the same namespace.
However, the inline schema within this example doesn't specify an elementFormDefault attribute and therefore when applying schema validation elementFormDefault unqualified will be used (which is the default).
This will cause an schema validation error (at least when using .NET XmlDocument schema validation): "The element 'payment' in namespace 'http://commerce.example.com/payment' has invalid child element 'number' in namespace 'http://commerce.example.com/payment'. List of possible elements expected: 'number, expiry'.".
When I change the test case and specify "elementFormDefault='qualified'", the instance document validates without any schema errors.
This is also what is to be expected reading the article: http://geekswithblogs.net/dmillard/archive/2004/10/20/12935.aspx
What's your opinion on this matter?
With kind regards,
Mike Perquin
