| 22 | <div><p>After you create an XML schema, you can edit its various properties, |
| 23 | such as its namespace and prefix.</p><div class="skipspace"><p>The following instructions were written for the Resource perspective, |
| 24 | but they will also work in many other perspectives. </p> |
| 25 | <p>To edit an |
| 26 | XML schemas properties follow these steps:</p> |
| 27 | </div> |
| 28 | <ol><li class="skipspace"><span>Create a new XML schema or double-click an existing schema in the |
| 29 | Navigator view.</span> It will automatically open in the XML schema editor.</li> |
| 30 | <li class="skipspace"><span>In the Properties view, click the <span class="uicontrol">General</span> tab.</span></li> |
| 31 | <li class="skipspace"><span>You can change the <span class="uicontrol">Prefix</span> associated with |
| 32 | the current namespace.</span> Element and attribute names that are associated |
| 33 | with this namespace will be prefixed with this value.</li> |
| 34 | <li class="skipspace"><span>You can also edit the <span class="uicontrol">Target namespace</span> for |
| 35 | this schema.</span> A namespace is a URI that provides a unique name |
| 36 | to associate with all the elements and type definitions in a schema.<ol type="a"><li><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Advanced</span> if you want to add more |
| 37 | namespace declarations to your XML schema.</span></li> |
| 38 | </ol> |
| 39 | </li> |
| 40 | <li class="skipspace"><span>Click the <span class="uicontrol">Other</span> tab.</span> You can |
| 41 | modify the following values in this page.<ol type="a"><li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">attributeFormDefault</span> value. </span> Select <span class="uicontrol">qualified</span> if you want attributes in an |
| 42 | XML schema instance to be qualified by the prefix that is associated with |
| 43 | the schema namespace; otherwise, select <span class="uicontrol">unqualified</span>.</li> |
| 44 | <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">blockDefault</span> value.</span> This |
| 45 | field determines whether the types or elements in the schema may be replaced |
| 46 | by elements or types derived from them.</li> |
| 47 | <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">elementFormDefault</span> value.</span> Select <span class="uicontrol">qualified</span> if |
| 48 | you want elements in an XML schema instance to be qualified by the prefix |
| 49 | that is associated with the schema namespace; otherwise, select <span class="uicontrol">unqualified</span>.</li> |
| 50 | <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">finalDefault</span> value.</span> This |
| 51 | field determines whether the types or elements in the schema may be derived |
| 52 | from.</li> |
| 53 | <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">version</span> value.</span> Type the |
| 54 | version number of the schema in the <span class="uicontrol">version</span> field</li> |
| 55 | <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">xml:lang</span> value. </span> Type |
| 56 | the appropriate ISO-IETF (for example, en-us) tag in this field. This tag |
| 57 | may be inserted in documents to specify the language used in the contents |
| 58 | and attribute values of any element in an XML file.</li> |
| 59 | </ol> |
| 60 | </li> |
| 61 | <li class="skipspace"><span>Click the <span class="uicontrol">Documentation</span> tab if you want |
| 62 | to provide any information about this XML schema.</span> The <span class="uicontrol">Documentation</span> page |

| 64 | Info</span> page can be used to provide information for applications. </li> |
