Hi Folks, I would like to associate this title element with a complexType named property: <title>The Implementation of Functional Programming Languages</title> Notice that this "property element" has simple content. I would like to associate this author element with the same property complexType: <author> <Person> <name>Simon L. Peyton Jones</name> </Person> </author> Observe that this property element has complex content. Thus, there are property elements with simple content and property elements with complex content. How do I define a property complexType such that it can be restricted to simpleContent and extended to complexContent? The following works, but I am not happy with it because it uses mixed="true" which I do not want. The <author> element has mixed content. Is there a way to implement this without requiring some property elements to have mixed content? /Roger <xs:complexType name="property" abstract="true" mixed="true" /> <xs:element name="title" type="titleType" /> <xs:complexType name="titleType"> <xs:simpleContent> <xs:restriction base="property"> <xs:simpleType> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:maxLength value="100" /> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleContent> </xs:complexType> <xs:element name="author" type="authorType" /> <xs:complexType name="authorType" mixed="true"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="property"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="Person" /> </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>
