RE: Validating document with schema

If he is using xsi:noNamespaceLocation and opening it in IE and expecting it to validate then it won't because IE does not use MSXML 4 which has the W3C XML Schema validation code in it but instead uses MSXML 3 but even then it doesn't do validation anyway. 
 
An online validator that may be of use here is at http://apps.gotdotnet.com/xmltools/xsdvalidator/

Wow, what an unhelpful response. I wonder how difficult a stretch it would
have been to guess that he was using MSXML...

Svend,

Are you trying to get the schema from a linux/unix server? If so, there is a
bug in MSXML (or IE, don't know...), where it sends the request as lower
case. So your server could be looking for tests.xsd. Check your server logs.

Best,
-Rob
