You can use the xs:pattern facet to control which characters can legally appear in the value of an element or attribute. But you can't control the different ways of writing such characters - directly, via entity references, or via character references. If they're allowed at all, then they can be written in any way that XML permits. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
