Hi, I tried to search the archives at http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/ on this but got a message saying: The requested URL /cgi-bin/htsearch was not found on this server. I also did a search of the internet but unfortunately am having trouble finding info on this situation the XML Schema spec. I would like to redefine an element (PublicEventContactType) that is defined in a schema as containing a group called ContactInfo. I don't want to redefine the group itself, as those changes would apply to a lot of other elements where I don't want the change made, but just within this PublicEventContactType element itself. You would think that this would be something that XML Schema would support, but I am getting an error message from XML Spy 2005 saying, "The content model of complex type 'ev:PublicEventContactType' is not a valid restriction of the content model of complex type 'ev:PublicEventContactType' and a similar error in Oxygen 6.2. Is this really not possible? You would think I could substitute the elements in the group for the group in the redefine...I do understand that I could remove them here and put them back in in an extension, but that would require another schema. Original: <xs:group name="ContactInfo"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="ev:ContactName" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:ProfessionalAffiliations" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:Phones" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:EmailAddresses" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:Addresses" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:WebPages" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:PreferredContactMethod" minOccurs="0"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:group> <xs:complexType name="PublicEventContactType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="ev:PublicEventContactID" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:group ref="ev:ContactInfo" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:PublicEventContactTypes" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:PublicEventContactParentID" minOccurs="0"> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> Redefine: <xs:complexType name="PublicEventContactType"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:restriction base="ev:PublicEventContactType"> <xs:sequence> <!-- REMOVING THIS ELEMENT <xs:element ref="ev:PublicEventContactID" minOccurs="0"/> --> <xs:element ref="ev:ContactName" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:ProfessionalAffiliations" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:Phones" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:EmailAddresses" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element ref="ev:Addresses" minOccurs="0"/> <!-- REMOVING THIS ELEMENT <xs:element ref="ev:WebPages" minOccurs="0"/> --> <xs:element ref="ev:PreferredContactMethod" minOccurs="0"/> <!-- REMOVING THIS ELEMENT <xs:element ref="ev:PublicEventContactTypes" minOccurs="0"> </xs:element> --> <!-- REMOVING THIS ELEMENT <xs:element ref="ev:PublicEventContactParentID" minOccurs="0"> </xs:element> --> </xs:sequence> </xs:restriction> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType> Thanks for your help, Allison Bloodworth Principal Administrative Analyst Technology Program Office University of California, Berkeley (415) 377-8243 abloodworth@b...
