Hi Jeni,
you write
> I'm not sure which thing you want to affect the occurrence of -- is it
> the <content> elements?
I'm sorry that my description was not clear enough. When re-reading it even I can see it :-).
The problem is more complicated.
I want to have a sequence of several
<testentry>
<name>value</name>
<content>
<subcontent1>
<subchoice1a/>
</subcontent1>
<subcontent1>
<subchoice1b/>
</subcontent1>
<subcontent2/>
</content>
</testentry>
"testentry" should be a restriction by choice of a certain type testType.
Based on the value in "name" (its vocabulary will be fixed, for example 10 different values), the restrictions on content should vary.
"content" is a sequence of subcontent elements, some repetitive, some not.
subcontent1 contains a subchoice itself.
What I need are several rules like:
name = "value1" --> there must be a "subcontent1" with "subchoice1a", annother "subcontent1" with "subchoice1b" can occur and "subcontent2" can occur.
I understand your mail that that is not possible to specify such constraints in plain schema. Am I correct?
Do I always need an external rule engine like Schematron or Relax NG for that?
Best regards,
..............................
