The unofficial compact syntax for XSD <http://dret.net/projects/xscs> is even simpler: element altitude { (xs:string) required attribute units {"feet", "meters"} } I like it! Are there validating engines which validate XML instances against schemas that are specified using this compact syntax? Are people using this compact syntax in real-world applications? /Roger From: John Cowan [mailto:johnwcowan@gmail.com]
