The answer to the second statement, which asks about how they are intended to be used, depends on whom you ask. I think different people have different ideas about how namespaces are intended to be used. Certainly, products are allowed to use the namespace URI as input to any kind of implementation-dependent magic for locating a schema document. That might include attempting to dereference the URI.

Subject: Re: advice on xmlns requested Would it be correct to say that namespaces are url labels only and are not intended for use to locate and retrieve .xsd documents? | ||||||
