Chapter 2 XML Model Basics

What is an XML model?

An XML model is a graphical representation of an XML Schema Definition file (.XSD), a Document Type Definition file (.DTD) or an XML-Data Reduced file (.XDR).

With its Browser tree view and diagram, an XML model gives you a global and schematic view of all the elements composing an XSD, a DTD or an XDR file. This is very helpful when you need to understand, check or modify the complex structure of an XSD, a DTD or an XDR file.
