RE: [xsl] How to read Schema XSD in stylesheet XSL!

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you need to ask the question, then you shouldn't attempt this.

Writing a program in any language that tests whether instances are valid
against a schema is a significant challenge and requires a good knowledge of
the theory of compiler writing. Writing such a program in XSLT is
significantly more difficult (because the classical approach uses finite
state machines, and XSLT is stateless).
