Helvetica28L;56L;84L;112L;140L;168L;196L;224L;252L;280L;308L;336L; I have a local install of the standalone XSV program, and like using it alot. However, I have certain combinations of xml and xsd files that seem to hang it up. I don't currently have an example I can give you that demonstrates this. I have about a dozen xml files that use the same xsd. Some of them work and some do not. Sometimes, just a tiny change to the xsd file or a small change to the xml will make a previously working combination stop working. When it works it runs in a couple of seconds on my 450MHz Dell running NT. When it does not work, it pegs the cpu at 100% and keeps it there forever as far as I can tell. When this happens is there anyway to get some kind of trace out of it to know what is hanging it up? Is there a newer version of xsv that might work better. The copy I have is from October 30th (the xsv.exe file that is).
