conditional validation based on an attribute
Posted: Mon Mar 27, 2006 11:37 pm
Hi,
Does anybody know of an easy way in a XSD to have a validation based on an attribute from the parent node ?
My XML:
....
<product no="218">
<part type="é" />
</product>
<product no="205">
<participant>N</participant>
<part type="é">
<nb>1</nb>
</part>
</product>
...
In the XSD:
...
<xs:element name="participant" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
...
<xs:element name="part" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="12">
The tag participant can only occur if the product no is 205, and the maxOccurs of product no 218 is 12 where is really is 10 for product no 205.
How can I do this ? I really need both to be under the "product tag", so I cannot change its name.
Thank's for help !
