OK. If ECMA-262 is only about core and not the (default) library -
where could I ask then? Which body takes care about the libaray?
My guess would be the WHATWG [1] or public web apps [2].
This is where you want a JS library. There are many choices,
although I'm no XML expert:
https://www.google.com/search?q=XSD+validation+in+JS&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
Even there it looks more and more like a big, open toppic that many
stumbled upon and noone could solve.
I came to the same conclusion when I had that same problem a couple of
years ago. I'm not very surprised it hasn't changed.
The best solution so far seems to
validate on the server and give that result back via AJAX, which is
quite disappointing...
Thanks,
Chris
PS: Of course you could write an validator in JavaScript and include
that as an external library. But I fear that would create a huge
overhead
XSD is indeed a complicated spec and would require quite some code :-)
especialls as I assume that browsers usually have a
validator already included which could be made visible to the JS
interpreter
Is it the case in Firefox or Chrome? I would guess not, but I don't know
them that much.
The MSXML is already going that way - but it's not cross
platform.
Indeed. Web technologies have not taken the XML turn a lot of people
expected 5-10 years ago.
