Yes, it defines how rlo file could be constructed and the vocabulary in use. Actually this is the starting point - I wanted to get to know the rlo file from this angle. Seems it's not employed anywhere in Xerte. It's ok.<br>
Xerte now is leveraging schema to implement dynamic templates.

did start to make one, but there wasn't really any point, and nothing I<br>
could think of at the tie it would be useful for. That doesn't mean it<br>
might not be useful - just so far no one has trid to do anything that<br>
requires one,<br>

<br>
For the benefit of folk on here who wouldn't know a schema from a bowl<br>
of trifle:<br>
<br>
I think what Jin's referring to is the XML schema<br>
(<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xml#Schemas_and_validation" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xml#Schemas_and_validation</a>), a definition<br>
file (DTD) which describes the nodes and attributes in the XML which<br>
Xerte uses. This is part of standard XML but is currently not applicable<br>
to Xerte in that the .rlo file is a data store for the Xerte runtime<br>
engine only, rather than a document to go online. Do you have a<br>
practical reason for wanting a schema, Jin?<br>
<br>
I'm a long, long way from being an expert on XML, but my vague memory is<br>
that a schema is essentially a dictionary of terms. XML allows you to<br>
create your own private language, so the schema tells the Whole Wide<br>
World what your words mean. I think - I'm happy to be corrected on this.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

Fred<br>
