XML validation error: Description: TargetNamespace.2: Expecting no namespace, but the schema document has a target namespace of ...

Hello,

The following error is reported in Oxygen XML but the parser does successfully validate my XML document against the given XSD:  "Description: TargetNamespace.2: Expecting no namespace, but the schema document has a target namespace of 'http://schemas/jupiter'."

Otherwise it appears to work. If I change noNamespaceSchemaLocation to schemaLocation the error changes to "There is no schema or DTD associated with the document" and the validation stops working. It appears that not using a namespace is not an option because the type used to validate the currency-short-name must be qualified with a namespace.

I would like this error to go away and ultimately have this properly defined.

Thank you,
Peter

    <estimate-currency name="Euro" short-name="EURx" exchange-rate="1.000000"/>
 
Note: The above line correctly fails validation because EURx is not a valid currency-short-name-type
