Hi all,
while declaring XML NameSpace we are using URI which looks like "http:\\www.w3.org\2001\XMLSchema"
My question is why should we use Http formate even though it is not hooking in to that address.
Why cant we use the formate like company_name/project_name/etc...(company name & project will be unique always...so i hope we can use it)
ofcourse,i know http formate is specified by w3 community,but still i hope there might be a strong reason behind using Http formate(insted of ordinary package name)over other naming convention...can any one of you explain the significance of using Http formate in XML nameSpace

Giving up is the easiest thing in the world to do..but holding it together when everything seems like falling apart is true strength!!
with regards, Harish.T

Couple of reasons for using URL format for namespace
- URL is well known format
- Standard
- More importantly it's guaranteed to be unique.
- Language independent (Java isn't only language suppose to work on XML)
- Easy to associate with companies Web URL and avoid naming conflicts
