RELAX NG is a schema language for XML, an alternative to using DTDs. It is designed to be simple and easy to learn, and has both an XML syntax and a non-XML syntax. It supports datatyping and XML namespaces, and it integrates attributes into content models.

RELAX NG is specified by ISO/IEC 19757-2:2003.

Use the OMRELAXNG library when you want to validate input against a RELAX NG schema.

This program validates input against a RELAX NG schema, reports validation errors and keeps going:

     import "omrelaxng.xmd" prefixed by relaxng.
  
  
     define markup sink function
        report-errors (value string sink s)
     as
        using output as s
        do markup-parse #current-input
           output "%c"
        done
  
  
     process
        local relaxng.relaxng-schema-type example-schema
  
        set example-schema to relaxng.compile-schema file "example-schema.rng"
  
        do xml-parse scan file "example-input.xml"
           using output as relaxng.validator against example-schema report-errors-to report-errors (#error)
              output #content
        done
