I'm getting the following error whilst trying to validate an XML document based on the Google Atom feed.
Error - Line 8, 10: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 8; columnNumber: 10; cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'g:brand'. One of '{"xxx..w3.org/2005/Atom":id, "xxx.w3.org/2005/Atom":title, ".w3.org/2005/Atom":link, "xxx.w3.org/2005/Atom":brand}' is expected.
Here is my XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I'm guessing the error has to do with my namespace declared in the XML (xmlns:g="http://base.google.com/ns/1.0"). I have entered this in the targetNamespace of the XSD, but I cannot get it to work.
