Announce: Schematron Validator for RSS 1.0beta   Message List  
Reply Message #250 of 4640 |
Hi,

I've put together a simple schematron [1] validator for RSS based
on as much information I could compile. Dave Winers resource [2]
provided a great deal of useful input.

I'd be grateful for any feedback anyone has on the validator.
Particularly if I've missed anything important.

My plans are to collate feedback, undertake some additional
testing, and tidy up the error messages before releasing this
as version 1.0 (they're a bit rough at the moment).

I'm also planning to update the validator so that it is capable
of validating the Modular RSS format discussed on this
list recently.

You can download the validator from:

Thanks, looking forward to comments.

... For the simple reason that there isn't much in the way of tools supporting XML schemas. Schematron is an excellent way to write simple validators like...
