Okay correct would be for example (asuming that lzx.xsd is in the same
folder like the test.lzx):

test.lzx:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<lzx:canvas xmlns:lzx="http://www.laszlosystems.com/2003/05/lzx";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.laszlosystems.com/2003/05/lzx lzx.xsd ">

    <lzx:view name="asddsa">

    </lzx:view>

</lzx:canvas>

Question:
Would it be an idea to make the compile in OpenLaszlo ignore the prefix of
ANY tag ?

Also to ignore other statements like schema or ":", currently it seems to
be impossible to define a lzx file with valid schema, even if you simple
use this template:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<canvas xmlns="http://www.laszlosystems.com/2003/05/lzx";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.laszlosystems.com/2003/05/lzx lzx.xsd ">
</canvas>
=> Results in a exception:
Compilation Errorstest.lzx:3:130: Syntax error: the token ":" was not
expected at this position.test.lzx:3:126: found an unknown attribute named
"schemaLocation" on element canvas, check the spelling of this attribute
name

The compile should accept those prefix and schema definitions, and just
ignore them.
That way you can use arbitrary prefix, which would make it more easy to
combine for example a "project" or any kind of custom xsd with the global
xsd.

Making the same with a DTD is a lot more difficult as you need to manually
write a task that combines the DTD into a single file. Also namespaces seem
to be more up-to-date in features to handle complex schemas.

Further:
The xsd the current build process produces is not correct:
It ignores the possibility to define attribute values in inherited classes,
example:

<class name="blabla" extends="view" width="200">

</class>

=> is invalid. I guess this is something we could live with, you need to
define such attributes in the instance:
<blabla width="200" />
=> would be okay again. However this should be clearly written down in the
docs.
