The new (as of Alfresco v2.2SP3 / v3.0SP1) recommended way of achieving this is through webscripts. For more information see http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Forms_Authoring_Guide#Using_dynamic_types_in_schemas and example attachments in https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ETWOTWO-926.

Hi,

You can try uploading xsd into web project and use the relative path in your imports. Basically this approach works with all versions of Alfresco.
However I have faced difficulty in some version (3.0) while trying to include/import xsd from DM Space.

And as mentioned above the third way is to write the webscript to import. But i guess if web forms are not shared accross the projects then importing in the web project would be easier…

You might find the solution described at http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/pmonks/2009/07/07/including-a-static-xsd-in-a-web-form/ helpful.
