I'm not sure if this is the right list to ask this question ...<br>
<br>
Normally, I validate using oXygen, but my client wants me to provide a
demo of online validation for users who don't have such an editor.<br>
<br>
I have been trying to use validator.nu to demonstrate validation with
respect to our RNC schema, that is generated on the fly<br>
<br>
<a
href="http://ruleml.org/0.91/relaxng/schema_rnc.php?backbone=x3f&default=x7&termseq=x7&lng=x1&propo=x3f&implies=x7&terms=xf3f&quant=x7&expr=xf&serial=xf">http://ruleml.org/0.91/relaxng/schema_rnc.php?backbone=x3f&default=x7&termseq=x7&lng=x1&propo=x3f&implies=x7&terms=xf3f&quant=x7&expr=xf&serial=xf</a><br>
<br>
<br>
I find that validator.nu cannot handle this schema URL, apparently
because it does not end with .rnc, so it doesn't know what the language
is.<br>
<br>
<span class="Apple-style-span"

</span></span><br>
<br>
I tried a couple of work-arounds<br>
1. redirect from a url with the .rnc extension to the PHP url<br>
2.use an nvdl script where the schema type is stated explicitly<br>
<br>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br>
<rules xmlns=<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/nvdl/ns/structure/1.0">"http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/nvdl/ns/structure/1.0"</a><br>
xmlns:a=<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://relaxng.org/ns/compatibility/annotations/1.0">"http://relaxng.org/ns/compatibility/annotations/1.0"</a>><br>
<namespace ns=<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://www.ruleml.org/0.91/xsd">"http://www.ruleml.org/0.91/xsd"</a>><br>
<validate
schema=<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://ruleml.org/0.91/relaxng/schema_rnc.php?backbone=x3f&default=x7&termseq=x7&lng=x1&propo=x3f&implies=x7&terms=xf3f&quant=x7&expr=xf&serial=xf">"http://ruleml.org/0.91/relaxng/schema_rnc.php?backbone=x3f&default=x7&termseq=x7&lng=x1&propo=x3f&implies=x7&terms=xf3f&quant=x7&expr=xf&serial=xf"</a>
schemaType="application/relax-ng-compact-syntax"/><br>
</namespace><br>
<anyNamespace><br>
<allow/><br>
</anyNamespace><br>
</rules><br>
<br>
But I always get the same error message. <br>
I am guessing that each of the requests generates a new request that
looks like what I tried to enter originally.<br>
<br>
Note - if I copy the schema generated by the PHP and save it in file
(with .rnc extension) and give a URL pointing to that, then validation
is successful.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions for a work-around?<br>
<br>
Thanks, Tara<br>
