Something like this, maybe ? :

<xsd:complexType name="MyLexiconType">
  <xsd:sequence>
    <xsd:any minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"
namespace="//mylexiconserver/mylexicon.xsd" processContents="lax">
      <LexName>LexValue</LexName> <!-- all content here must be defined
in 'mylexicon.xsd' -->
    </xsd:any>
  </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>

The content of the 'minOccurs' and 'maxOccurs' are there for
completeness... ;)

Subject:  XML Schema and XPointer


Hello,

I have an XML Schema that represents some sort of a lexicon.
In this lexicon there are items which can be referred using an ID.

I am now defining another XML Schema and need to express a method of
pointing
to an item in a lexicon (that is written in an instance of this lexicon
schema).

What would be a good way to point there and still get some sort of
validation
and enforcement from an XML Parser?

For example, would XPointer be a good solution?
If so, how to represent it in the XSD? And how to represent it in the
XML
instance?


Thanks.
