SPAN Schemas

The SPAN Risk Parameter and Position file schemas were created and edited by Altova XmlSpy. Corresponding DTDs were created by converting an XML Schema into DTD.

The SPAN Schema Documentation was generated by XmlSpy from XML schemas. It contains a detailed descripton of SPAN elements. Related elements (child elements, complex types, etc.) are hyperlinked in the onscreen output, enabling you to navigate from component to component. Components with a content model have links to the content model definitions. You can also navigate the XML tree via 'diagram',  'children' and 'used by' links.

For description of schema documentation details, please go to the Altova XMLSpy tutorial
http://www.altova.com/documents/XMLSpyTutorial.pdf. It provides an overview of the graphical representation of components in the Content Model, compositors that define the order in which child elements occur (sequence, choice, and all), complex and simple types, etc.
