It's not kosher W3C XML Schema, but I'm trying to provide an approach which will let you fragment whatever lexical form of date you have into a set of smaller pieces (day, month, second, etc.). It works okay for element content, but I'm still working on attribute content. See: http://simonstl.com/projects/fragment/ I'm hoping to have the remaining attribute issues sorted out sometime in the next month, so keep watching! Simon St.Laurent
