Schedule XML Schema

The Schedule XML Schema can be used to validate the XML Pharmaceutical Schedule distributed by PHARMAC.

From Schedule.xsd:

Pharmaceutical Schedule XML Schema

Copyright (c) 2002-2006  PHARMAC

This schema can be considered the authoritive Pharmaceutical
Schedule XML Schema as of July 2006, see the ChangeLog annotation
for revision details.

MathML

A subset of MathML is used for Special Authority form criteria, more information about MathML can be found at the MathML homepage:

http://www.w3.org/Math/

The MathML XML Schema is available here:

http://www.w3.org/Math/XMLSchema/

The following changes were made to the MathML schema to enable it to work with the libxml2 XML C parser and toolkit:

XHTML

We use XHTML-1.0-Strict for notes and guidelines, for more information see the XHTML 1.0 homepage:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/

The XML Schema xhtml1-strict.xsd is imported by Schedule.xsd from a copy in the same directory, the original is available here:

http://www.w3.org/2002/08/xhtml/xhtml1-strict.xsd

This schema depends on the XML Schema xml.xsd copied from:

http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd

To enable the importation of the relative xml.xsd by xhtml1-strict.xsd the following change was made to xhtml1-strict.xsd:

33c33
<       schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"/>
---
>       schemaLocation="xml.xsd"/>

We also add the following to allow xlink attributes to occur wherever and allow validation:

XLink

We use XLink attributes to reference parts of the schedule, for more information see:
