complextypes and restrictions 1

[RwDwR]

Why is it not possible to make a declaration with an XML schema dat declares an element with maxvalue=720 and minvalue=-720 and an attribute called Unit (Degree, mm, aso)

please tell me, because XML drives me nuts with all the things it can't do, doesn't anyone have a good reference for me???

Try "Proffesional XML","Proff... schemas" etc from WROX. I don't know what you tried to do, but here is something that looks like what you want...

<xs:complexType name=&quot;minmax&quot;>
  <xs:simpleContent>
    <xs:restriction base=&quot;xs:integer&quot;>
	<xs:minInclusive value=&quot;-720&quot;/>
	<xs:maxInclusive value=&quot;720&quot;></xs:maxInclusive>
	<xs:attribute name=&quot;Unit&quot;></xs:attribute>
    </xs:restriction>
  </xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>

I am not sure if this was your problem, but attributes come alwayslast in type definitions...

got it myself to, thanks anyhow, I just made a thinking error...

found a decent reference by now, shouldn't be here to often anymore...

I'll second the WROX recommendation that Nosferatu made. The XSLT Programmer's Reference has saved my sanity more than once.
