Joining 3 schemas into 1

Hi,

Any given schema document can only have one target namespace.  Since each of 
these has a different one, you can't combine them unless you want all the 
elements in the document to be in a single (or no) namespace.

I wouldn't recommend this, because it looks like you are importing a 
separate standard and therefore shouldn't change the namespaces in that 
standard.  If you want to do it anyway, you need to remove all the ds: and 
xds: prefixes from your combined schema document and your instance.

Hope that helps,
Priscilla

I haven't looked at the zip file but if you say you import schemas 
(xsd:import) then the answer is no, you need (at least) one schema per 
target namespace, you can't have definitions for different namespaces in 
one schema.
