Simple XML Schema document for some bits of RDF we need for a demonstration. This is not a real or realistic schema for the XML serialization of RDF. Sorry if you got your hopes up.

If you are viewing this with an HTML browser and all you see is English prose, you may wish to select View Source or an equivalent option, so you can see the actual declarations. Or you can trust the documentation. Really. It's trustworthy. Trust me.

We define:

the rdf:RDF element
the rdf:about attribute
the rdf:resource attribute

Created for use with OAI/CC demonstration of GRDDL. C. M. Sperberg-McQueen, 2 February 2005.

The rdf:RDF element contains an XML serialization of an RDF graph.

We let the element default to the type anyType, so the allowed contents are any XML at all.

The rdf:about attribute identifies the resource being described by a bit of XML.

The value must name a resource, so it has to be a URI.

The rdf:resource names the object of a statement; the value of the property.

The value must name a resource, so it has to be a URI.
