RE: [xml-dev] sgml dtd to w3 schema conversion

Hi, Scott -

While you cannot specify an unbounded choice on the group itself, you
can specify the unbounded choice on the group reference in whatever
elements/types you reference the group from:

<xsd:group ref="scottsGroup" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>

Subject: [xml-dev] sgml dtd to w3 schema conversion

hello,

i have a little bit of a problem. i'm trying to
convert a sgml dtd to a schema. here's the
declaration:

<!ENTITY  % group1    "(element1 | element2 | element3
| element4 | element5 | element6 | element7)+" >

i was hoping to make this into a group in the schema
because it it will be used in many place, but having
an unbounded choice in a group isn't allowed. 

any suggestions?

thanks,

-scott
