why XML Schema beats DTDs hands-down for data description
Info-management developer and author Kevin Williams tells us why he likes XML Schema for the structural definition of XML documents for data. With ample examples, he looks at four features of XML Schema that are particularly suited to data representation. XML Schema specification has been promoted by W3S to Recommendation status. While most people find the specifications a little hard to read, the jargon conceals a very strong set of features, especially for those of us who are designing XML structures for data.
