URL pattern

[Mhaxx]

I need something like this:

<xsd:simpleType name="url">
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
<xsd:pattern value="http://(.)*"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>

where (.)* is the right patter for an URL.

I can't find anything on web.. is there an URL type definition for XML
just done somewhere?

What about xsd:anyURI, is that not restrictive enough?

It is a defined type so you can do
<xsd:element type="xsd:anyURI"
for instance.

I've just tried to use an URL istance like "http://,,,^^^^^...." or
"pppp" and it seems to be ok (validated): why?? :-O

Hi all,

I actually wanted to restrict some words from a valid URL.
I need something like
NOT ( some pattern )

which will restrict any URL which contains forum4designers any where.

like
^(http://.*forum4designers.*)
or
!(http://.*forum4designers.*)

In what language do you want to do this?

If it's XSLT then you want something like

<xsl:if test="not(contains($URL,'forum4designers'))">

If you want more pattern-matching, you'll have to wait for XSLT2,
which has REs.
