[Openpanorama-info] Little information.

[Mathieu VILLEGAS]

Hello.

In my last mail, I've talk about "xml schema". It's possible that some 
people in this mailing list don't know what an "xml schema" is.
An xml schema is an xml file which describe how a specific xml format 
have to look like. It's a sort of grammar.
openpanorama.xsd file is made to say how an openpanorama xml file have 
to look like. With an XML schema it's very easy to know if the 
openpanorama xml file you have created is valid (well formed) and 
compliant with the openpanorama specifications. You just need an xml 
validator software, you give it the xml schema and your xml file, and it 
will quickly say you if your xml file is compliant with the schema 
specification.
You can find xml validators at (for free and for every coputer with a 
java virtual machine):
   - http://wwws.sun.com/software/xml/developers/multischema/
            you just have to use this command:  java -jar msv.jar 
openpanorama.xsd openpanorama_example.xml

   - http://www.xmlmind.com/xsdvalid.html
            you just have to use this command:  xsdvalid.bat -s 
openpanorama.xsd openpanorama_example.xml

If you do not have a good java virtual machine, download the last JVM 
from sun:  http://java.sun.com/getjava/download2.html
      (if you have an other version than 1.4.1, it's strongly 
recommanded that you update to fix security issues)

I stand for your suggestions

Regards

Mathieu Villegas

PS: openpanorama.xsd has just been updated to fix a little bug with sun 
validator.
