Professional XML Schemas exhaustively details the W3C XML Schema language, and teaches the new syntax in an intuitive and logical way. From declaring elements and attributes, creating complex content models, and working with multiple namespaces, you'll move on to see how XML Schemas are used in real-world situations. A number of practical case studies will illustrate the design and creation of schemas in the diverse worlds of relational databases, document management, and e-commerce applications.
This book covers:
A complete guide to XML Schema Syntax
Using XML Schema built-in types, and deriving new types
Working with XML Schemas and namespaces
Creating identity and uniqueness constraints
Good XML Schema design, illustrated in a number of different areas
Working with XML Schemas and XSLT
Writing XML Schemas for working with SOAP
Integrating Schematron and XML Schemas

Review
Starting with an overview of what Schemas are for, the authors go on to cover the built-in Schema datatypes and then show how to define complex types and content models. A chapter of example datatypes helps to bring this material into focus. Next comes a close look at how XML Namespaces are used in the Schema language, including three design models with intriguing names: Russian Doll, Salami Slice and Venetian Blind. There is a chapter on using Schemas defined in multiple documents, followed by a guide to Identity Constraints and Normalisation, which are important for database work. Further chapters tackle XSLT, system modelling, creating Schema for an existing database, and document management. A fascinating chapter looks at Schema-based programming, which implements an entire application in XML. The authors also take a quick look at non-W3C schemas, particularly one called Schematron, and there is an appendix of reference material.
Professional XML developers need to know about Schemas, and this is a thorough and informative tutorial. It is a complex subject, but the book is sensibly organised so that readers can easily master the basics before going on to the more demanding aspects. --Tim Anderson
