Hi I have a question about the state of the schema implementation in
xerces-J 1.0.2

My understanding of the xml schema spec and namespaces is that my xml
document should look
like this:

<ris:ris xmlns:ris="ris.xsd">
  <ris:person>...</ris:person>
   ...
</ris:ris>

However I notice that the example personal-schema.xml looks more like
<ris xmlns="ris.xsd">
  <person>...</person>
</ris>

ie. only a default namespace is allowed.  When I try to add them in I
get all kinds of
errors.  I have tried to set the the namespaces feature to true.

            parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation";,
true);
            parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces";,
true);

Is this something that is just not currently implemented or am I
confused?
If this is just not currently supported, does anybody have plans to work
on it.

My problem is that I am also trying to xalan and it trips up on a
document with a default
name space.  If I'm just doing this all wrong, a short example of schema
use that also works
with xalan would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.
Karen
