Re: XSD help

You can embed Schematron rules in an XSD schema to specify co-occurrence
constraints and layer over XSD validation. For more information on
schematron,
take a look at:
www.schematron.com
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/11/22/schematron.html

Thanks,

Hi Stan

You cannot do this using Xml Schema - it does not have this type of
co-occurance constraints.

Thanks for the answer. I think this is a shame, XSD could have been an
excellent means of specifying user input + validation for thin clients.
