Where to place the XML Schema

[Karen Baog]

If I am given an XML schema and a XML document that requires validation against the XML schema, where should the XML schema be placed?

How will the XML document know where to find the XML schema?

Well, the schemaLocation attribute value is what you would want to look into to determine this. The XML Validator uses this value to determine the location of the schema file.

For local testing you can put the schema file and the XML instance file in the same directory and try to validate the schema.
