Hi guys,

I'm exploring OSIS and how it could interface with a mobile application I'm trying to develop, but I'm new and I am unable to find many resources that really talk about the OSIS format/how to use it/ and where to find OSIS files that I can experiment with.

Any advise or help woudl be great! thanks!

Warmest regards
Nelson

Have you seen
http://www.bibletechnologies.net/
The schema and the manual are available from there.

http://www.bibletechnologies.net/osistext/
has a number of examples.

I'm attaching FirstOSIS.xml, which is a valid OSIS document, and corrects a few mistakes in the manual. Corrections have been submitted for inclusion, but a new manual hasn't been issued in over two years.

There is a kjv.xml, that illustrates OSIS done according to SWORD specifications, but I don't have the address offhand. Maybe someone else can fill that in.

Peace,

David
