Hi For clarity could you please write if this is the official WG answer or your own opinion (when I read this aloud it sounds like the WG answer)? > > When an unrecognized type is referenced, it defaults down to > xsd:string, which matches pretty much everything. But then mixed content will always be invalid, correct? E.g. <data> <value>v</value> </data> and <xforms:input ref="/data">... if no datatypes is assigned to <data> and it defaults to xsd:string, then it will be invalid because of the <value/>. Is that really what the working group intent? The very funny implication of this is that a form with an instance that has no types assigned and has more than a document element will always be invalid and will never submit (unless you go to corner examples as having a ref to a node with hasn't got element in its content). IMO the validation scheme used in XForms is totally broke and under specified and should be fixed from scratched. Best regards, David
