I am doing an evaluation on xmlmind with one of my user. So far this is
mostly success. I am using XMLmind personal editon in the evaluation,
but if we decide to use it we will buy the web edition.
There is a issue I need to find a solution on:
- When XMLmind saves the document it adds xmlns:ns=”http://
skema.althingi.is/skema” (and some more declaration) to the document,
which already had xmlns="http://skema.althingi.is/skema"; . This makes
some confusion in other systems, which makes the document unusable
later on. Is there any way to make XMLmind stop adding xmlns:ns=”http://
skema.althingi.is/skema” to the documents?
Sorry but the answer is no, as XMLmind XML Editor automatically declares
all the namespaces found in the schema to which the document being
edited is conforming. The prefixes used for these automatically declared
namespaces are indeed "ns", "ns2", "ns3", etc.
The only thing you can do is to predeclare these namespaces with
meaningful prefixes in all the document templates and documents
instances you are editing with XMLmind XML Editor. This way, at least,
you'll control the namespace prefixes being used.
Example:
---
<myroot xmlns="http://skema.althingi.is/skema";
xmlns:alth="http://skema.althingi.is/skema";>
...
</myroot>

More generally, XMLmind XML Editor does not care very much about the
physical contents of XML files. It's all about the logical contents.
Therefore you may find other problems with our product if your other
systems somewhat rely on the physical contents of XML files. This
limitation is clearly marked (red cross) as a possible deal breaker in
our "Features" page, https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/features.html .
Sorry again for the disappointment.
