Hi Eric,

Try to add urn:isbn:1-931666-22-9 in the schemalocation so it looks like this: xsi:schemaLocation="urn:isbn:1-931666-22-9 http://www.loc.gov/ead/ead.xsd"

You need to have which namespace first and then where the schema is located to make it find the schema associated with the namespace.

Regards,
Karin Bredenberg

Is it true then, that other people have had problems migrating their stylesheets as they move from DTD-based EAD files to schema-based ones?

Second, please tell me. Is this the minimum ead declaration I can have to make an EAD file validate against the schema:

  <ead
     xsi:schemaLocation = "http://www.loc.gov/ead/ead.xsd"
     xmlns:ns2 = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
     xmlns = "urn:isbn:1-931666-22-9"
     xmlns:xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

If I remove the urn:isbn namespace, then I am able to use my original stylesheet, but then EAD file does not validate.
