using in xml namespace defined in schema

[Dominique]

I want to use a namespace in an XML file, that I have created in the
schema for this xml file. do i have to redefine this namespace in the
xml file? or is there a way to re-use the definition from the schema?

here is the example I found on the net, that I am trying to validate,
and it doesn't work...

If your schema declares that an element has to be in a certain namespace
e.g. if you use
<xs:schema
targetNamespace="http://example.com/2004/07/kibology"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
...>
then of course your instance XML document needs to use that namespace by
declaring a prefix for it e.g.
<ki:root
xmlns:ki="http://example.com/2004/07/kibology">...</ki:root>
or use the namespace as the default namespace e.g.
<root xmlns="http://example.com/2004/07/kibology">...</root>
