XMLmind has developed a robust, self-contained, W3C XML Schema for XHTML 5 which is as faithful to W3C Working Draft 29 March 2012 as an W3C XML Schema can be.
XMLmind has also developed XSLT 2 stylesheets allowing —with the help of the appropriate XSL-FO processor— to convert XHTML 1.0, 1.1 and 5.0 documents to PostScript, PDF, RTF, WordprocessingML, Office Open XML (.docx) and OpenOffice (.odt).
These XSLT 2 stylesheets
xsl:attribute-set
s.The W3C XML Schema for XHTML 5 and the XSLT 2 stylesheets for XHTML 1.0, 1.1 and 5.0 developed by XMLmind are open source software licensed under the terms of the MIT license. This means that you may freely use these resources outside XMLmind products.
Example: validate this document (which is valid XHTML 5) using Xerces2 Java Parser 2.11:
$ java -cp "$XERCES_HOME/xercesSamples.jar:$XERCES_HOME/xercesImpl.jar:$XERCES_HOME/resolver.jar" \ jaxp.SourceValidator \ -a xsd/xhtml5.xsd -i xhtml5_resources.README.html
The XSLT stylesheets require Saxon 9.3+ in order to work.
Example: convert this document (which is valid XHTML 5) to PDF using Apache FOP:
$ java -jar "$SAXON9_HOME/saxon9he.jar" -xsl:xsl/fo.xsl \ -s:xhtml5_resources.README.html \ -o:tmp.fo \ foProcessor=FOP $ fop tmp.fo xhtml5_resources.README.pdf
Note that the XSLT
stylesheets must be passed a foProcessor
parameter specifying
which XSL-FO processor is being used. This allows to take advantage of
extensions which are specific to the processor or or the contrary to
workaround limitations which are specific to the
processor.

Updated xhtml5.xsd
to reflect the specifications
contained in W3C
Working Draft 25 October 2012.
Bug fix: the XSL stylesheets
now add attribute xml:lang
to element fo:root
when
attribute lang
or xml:lang
is set on the
html
root element of the source document. Previously, these
stylesheets added a language
attribute to element
fo:page-sequence
but this language
attribute
possibly contained a combination of a language code and a country code (e.g.
"en-US
"), which is incorrect.
Updated xhtml5.xsd
to reflect the specifications
contained in W3C Working Draft 29
March 2012.
Bug fix: table attribute rules="all"
was not
correctly processed.
Bug fix: the align
attribute specified on
thead
, tfoot
, tbody
or
tr
was not inherited by td
.
First release. Xhtml5.xsd, the W3C XML Schema for XHTML 5 developed by XMLmind corresponds to W3C Working Draft 25 May 2011.
