Hi Andy,
You can do that with Schematron for instance, eventually you can just
embed a rule inside your XML Schema file. Or you can do that with Relax NG.
Note that if you stay with XML Schema you do not need two validations.
Allow both modulemessage and servermessage after your global element and
the validation action will validate them, no matter what element you
have. Then at application level just check that the element matches what
the message-type attribute specifies.
Best Regards,
George
