I am trying to write a schema to validate an xml file. I can get it to validate everything correctly. I have one problem though. In the xml file, after a certain element, I am not going to know what will be there.
ex.
<Node1>
<Node2>
<Node3>
//After this point, the layout could change at any time (and without notice I might add)
//and I don't want to have to keep changing the schema everytime the layout changes.
</Node3>
</Node2>
</Node1>
Anyways, my question is, how would I write the schema to stop the validation at that point? Thanks.

hi,
<xs:any> should do the job.
W3C XML Schema spec.[^]

When I change it I get this exception "The 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema:any' element is not supported in this context". Any advice.

Nevermind, I changed it to
<xs:complexType name="Node4">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:any namespace="##any" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" processContents="skip" />
<xs:sequence>
<xs:complexType>
<xs:element name="Node4" type="Node4" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" />
Maybe not that exactly, but it worked. Thanks for the help

I have been teaching myself XML for a short time noe, and I want to move into using it with JavaScript for web sites. However, I would like to avoid using the typical "new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XMLDOM)" line. Is there an alternative to ActiveX/Microsoft?

 That's not good...
Well first (obvious) idea is not to read whole XML document to memory - XmlDocumentXmlTextReader, bt I am not sure how to get particular node - is it described with XPath or ...how?

hmm in case you don't know XPath, XmlDocument, XmlTextReader etc. feel free to ask - or google

hmmm, that looks like SQL problem... how does it go with XML/XSL?
Anyway, if it is SQL, you can do something like
SELECT users.name, friends.idontknowhat FROM users, friends WHERE users.id = friends.iduser
or is it in XML?

My question is can we serialize an array (array of objects) at a time in .Net. Can anybody annswer me........

Did you try? 
As quick look at MSDN shows it (System.Array) has [Serializable] attribute, so I guess answer is YES.

Here's my code:
try
{
_strContent = "<Employees><Employee id=\"1\"><Name>Ethan</Name></Employee></Employees>"
_xmlDoc.Load(".\\EMP.xml");
_docFrag = _xmlDoc.CreateDocumentFragment();
_docFrag.InnerXml = _strContent;
_xmlDoc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(_docFrag);
_xmlDoc.Save(".\\EMP.xml");
}
catch(Exception exc)
{
MessageBox.Show(exc.ToString());
}
The EMP.xml is already existing. I just used the above block of code to add new nodes into an existing EMP.xml file. But, I received this exception:
This is an unexpected token. The expected token is 'EndElement'
Unlikely though, the code performs its function. When I check the file, I saw that the node I am trying to add was there, its just that the error keeps on prompting. Will anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

That means syntax error in your XML. Surprisingly.

Strange.
Could you post small examples of input/output? Or at least where exactly exception raises? I mean what statement? _xmlDoc.Load(), _xmlDoc.Save(), AppendChild?
Funny how can be debugging something about 10 lines difficult. I just failed test cuz of the same

hmmm. Could you delete your next "posts"? I mean you should MODIFY this one, not to post it again. If you didn't notice, there is magical "modify" link that allows you to edit your post. "delete" is right next to it Thank you.
As for your question... How do you want output to look like? If you have XML file and you want to have string with ALL markup, simple solution is to load it with System.IO.TextReader.
If you want to get only "Dan Brown", you should use classes from System.XmlNamespace. You can use XmlTextReader (similar way as TextReader, bt it reads XML nodes not characters or lines like TextReader) or XmlDocument (easy - it has Load(filename) method). To get "Dan Brown" text, you have to read <Author> element - with XmlTextReader use
this link cuz I just realized that I have lot of work now... sorry[^]

Hi David, thanks for your help, I think i'll prefer the use of TextReader.

I am not a C# person nor am I a XML person.
But I have enough skills I can fake it. Could you suggest a C# book that has a basic
1. Read an XML file
2. Determine that it is well formated.
3. Validate the scheme.
4. Write the result.
thanks
