Hi again Robert,
It looks like you are trying to restrict and extend (by adding
attributes) at the same time. You have to do it in two steps, so it
would look something like:
<simpleType name="restrictedFloat">
<xs:restriction base="xs:float">
<xs:minInclusive value="36.0"/>
<xs:maxInclusive value="100.0"/>
</xs:restriction>
</simpleType>
<xs:element name="height">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:extension base="restrictedFloat">
<xs:attribute name="units" use="required">
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:token">
<xs:enumeration value="in"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:attribute>
<xs:attribute name="display1" use="required">
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:token">
<xs:enumeration value="ft"/>
<xs:enumeration value=""/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:attribute>
<xs:attribute name="display2" use="required">
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:token">
<xs:enumeration value="in"/>
<xs:enumeration value="cm"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:attribute>
</xs:extension>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
Hope that helps!
Priscilla
