In this example there are three declarations of namespace and two 
declaration of schemalocation that are indipendent.

<Library xmlns:book="http://www.somewhere.org/Book" 
xmlns:person="http://www.somewhere-else.org/Person" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema/instance" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.somewhere.org/Examples 
http://www.somewhere.org/Examples/Book.xsd 
http://www.somewhere-else.org/Person 
http://www.somewhere-else.org/Person/Person.xsd">
 <BookCatalogue>
  <book:Book>
  <book:Title>Illusions The Adventures of a Reluctant 
Messiah</book:Title> 
  <book:Author>Richard Bach</book:Author> 
  <book:Date>1977</book:Date> 
  <book:ISBN>0-440-34319-4</book:ISBN> 
  <book:Publisher>Dell Publishing Co.</book:Publisher> 
  </book:Book>

When I analize this document with an application (automatically),  how I 
can understand that, for example, for "Book" element I must search it 
in the schema "Book.xsd" and no in the "Person.xsd", to verify  the 
validity of this document ?
Thank you for all.
