Because you can not restrict a simple type to a complex type (in your case, "string" to "phone"), the complex type needs to be written like this:
<element name="phone">
<complexType>
<simpleContent>
<restriction base="xsd:anyType">
<simpleType>
<restriction base="xsd:string">
<xsd:pattern ..../>
</restriction>
</simpleType>
<attribute name="type" ..../>
</restriction>
.....

I suppose you want to use simple type to describe textual data in mixed complex types. No, this is not supported by schema.

Thanks!
Does this mean that lets say phone number is a pattern based restriction,
you can't put the <restriction> here, say like
<element name="phone">
<complexType>
<simpleContent>
<restriction base="xsd:string">
<xsd:pattern ..../>
</restriction>
<attribute name="type" ..../>
.....
but instead need to define a separate type?
Also what about defining the PCData for a mixed content complexType, is this
definable?

Complex type with simple content is what you need. You can get one by
extending a simple type. For your example, assume you have a PhoneNumber
simple type for 555-1212, then you can
<element name="phone">
<complexType>
<simpleContent>
<extension base="my:PhoneNumber">
<attribute name="type" .../>

Subject[OT] PCDATA Schema in complexTypes
Sorry for the off topic-ness, couldn't think where else to ask this.
With a schema definition for a complexType, can you define the simpleType
part of it?
It really seems silly when the content is mixed, but if a complexType is
only complex because it has attributes
i could see wanting to define the simpleContent part
<phone type="pulse">555-1212</phone>
how do you schema-ize the 555-1212 part?
