Hello again, and thank you for the last solution Jeni.

I have looked quite a bit, and have found nothing showing how to have 
elements that can have both text and elements as childs.

All examples are for markup like this

<author>
  <firstname>Svend</firstname>
  <surname>Nielsen</surname>
</author>

<xs:element name="author">
  <xs:complextype>
    <xs:element name="firstname" type="xs:string"/>
    <xs:element name="surname" type="xs:string"/>
  </xs:complextype>
</xs:element>

But I need something that can have both xs:string and other elements, using 
the above example it would be like this:

<author>
  This is an incompetent author.
  <firstname>Svend</firstname>
  <surname>Nielsen</surname>
</author>

How do I describe this in schema?

Sincerely,
Svend Bent Nielsen
