It's not the exact schema, but it does look just like it, especially without the minoccurs and maxoccurs.
I've also tried setting the minoccurs=0 (but didn't set the maxoccurs) with similar results. Maybe need to set both minoccurs and maxoccurs? I couldn't find anywhere in the XSD docs where it talks about the default occurence attributes are either set, nor any docs telling me what they default to. Do you have a link? What I have found are little sentence blurbs at the W3C site, like this: "5.5 Default Values - An omitted accessor element implies either a default value or that no value is known. The specifics depend on the accessor, method, and its context. For example, an omitted accessor typically implies a Null value for polymorphic accessors (with the exact meaning of Null accessor-dependent). Likewise, an omitted Boolean accessor typically implies either a False value or that no value is known, and an omitted numeric accessor typically implies either that the value is zero or that no value is known." Reading this leads me to believe that not returning elements implies that their values are just default/null. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Peeyush Tuli" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > In your xsd there are no occurence attributes specified > , so the elements have default occurrence attributes, > > minoccurs=1 and maxoccurs = 1 > > In other words, they are always required once.
