It seems to me that you can't have it both ways. Either xml:lang is a universal attribute which is tied to RFC 3066 (or its sucessors), or its not. What if your schema defined xml:lang to accept only integers? How do you manage the contradiction? And what about xml:id? are we allowed to redefine the datatype of that?? Sebastian Rahtz
