Hi,
I was reading the feature list and it says:
- Conversions from DTD, Relax NG schema or a set of documents to XML Schema, DTD or Relax NG schema
I read your doc and you show how to convert an XML document(s) to a DTD but I don't see how to convert a DTD or a set of documents to an XML Schema. Thats basically why I am trying to use the software but I can't see how it can be done.
Thanks, Sam
Hello Sam, Thanks for your question. In Oxygen you can learn the structure of an XML Document and save to a DTD. If you then want to convert the DTD to an XSD, the trang plugin, bundled with Oxygen, can then be used to convert to XSD or Relax NG. The general procedure would be as follows: 1. Open you XML document. 2. Learn the structure by clicking the "learn structure" button located on the editor toolbar. 3. Save to a DTD by clicking the "save structure" button. You now have a DTD. 4. To convert it. From the main menu select Plugins > Trang Wrapper. 5. Set the input and output, the click Convert. The DTD will be transformed to the selected output. I hope this helps. I have also posted your question to oxygen-users. Sean Wheller __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Shopping - with improved product search http://shopping.yahoo.com
