Why didnīt this tag work? Can you help me? You need to include an ordinary namespace declaration for the xlink prefix, e.g. <xs:attribute ref="xlink:href" use="required" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/> You probably want to put it higher up in your schema document. You probably also want to specify a location where a schema document with a declaration for that attribute can be found -- you can either produce a tiny trivial one of your own, or use one of several that have been produced and can be found on the web, e.g. http://www.cs.vassar.edu/XCES/schema/xcesLink.xsd http://examples.oreilly.com/xmlschema/examples/xlink.xsd ht -- Henry S.
