Perhaps the people who know were on holiday, so I'll try again... Normally, if a complex type references two attribute groups, then the attributes permitted on an element are the union of those permitted by the two attribute groups. But if the two attribute groups both contain attribute wildcards, the attributes permitted are the intersection of what's allowed by the two wildcards (i.e. an attribute has to match both). However, if one complex type containing an attribute wildcard extends another complex type also containing an attribute wildcard, then the attributes permitted are the union of what's allowed by the two wildcards. Have I got it right? And if so, can someone please explain the reasoning? Michael Kay From bcha@c... Fri Apr 16 03:05:07 2004 R | ||||||
