Hamish- I dug through this issue earlier this week. I needed to define a complexType to have [1] a fixed enumeration of valid children, [2] their was no specific sequence or cardinality for the children, [3] only one of the valid children of any of the appropriate types is required. Spy was happy with the following code (though I haven't put it into integration testing yet): <xs:complexType name="form"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="container"> <xs:group ref="formContent" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> <xs:attribute name="formName" type="xs:string"/> <xs:attribute name="uiParentContainerID" type="xs:int"/> <xs:attribute name="workflow" type="xs:string"/> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType> <xs:group name="formContent"> <xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded"> <xs:element name="fieldGroup" type="container"/> <xs:element name="group" type="container"/> <xs:element name="hidden" type="container"/> <xs:element name="iFrame" type="container"/> <xs:element name="outlookBar" type="container"/> <xs:element name="processingRules" type="container"/> <xs:element name="renderWrapper" type="container"/> <xs:element name="tabSet" type="container"/> <xs:element name="table" type="container"/> </xs:choice> </xs:group> -----Original Message----- From: Hamish Eisler [mailto:HEisler@2roam.com] Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2001 8:34 PM To: Xmlschema-Dev (E-mail) Subject: <group> legal under <extension>? Hi everyone - Can someone in the know tell me if the following is legal? <xsd:complexType name="foo.extended.type"> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:extension base="xhtml:form.type"> <xsd:group ref="foo.extension.content"/> </xsd:extension> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> Basically, can I use <group> to extend an element, instead of directly placing a <sequence>, <choice>, or <all> node underneath? Seems logical, but maybe I'm missing something (or XML Spy is)... Thanks, -Hamish
