Hi Dane,
It seems all errors are caused by the same reason: you are trying to have a
complexType derived from a simpleType by restriction. For example:
<xs:complexType name="phone">
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:minLength value="12"/>
<xs:maxLength value="12"/>
<xs:attribute ref="eid" use="required"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>
Bullet 2 of "Complex Type Definition Representation OK" [1] makes it clear
that for simpleContent + simpleType base, the derivation method must be
"extension".
So I believe Xerces is right. To make it work for you, there are two ways:
(1)
<xs:complexType name="phone_base">
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:extension base="xs:string">
<xs:attribute ref="eid" use="required"/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="phone">
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:restriction base="phone_base">
<xs:minLength value="12"/>
<xs:maxLength value="12"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>
(2)
<xs:simpleType name="myString">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:minLength value="12"/>
<xs:maxLength value="12"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:complexType name="phone">
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:extension base="myString">
<xs:attribute ref="eid" use="required"/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>

Subject: Schema errors

Please respond

Hello all. I'm having a problem that I need some help with. I have a
Schema that validates without errors using XML Spy 4 beta 2. I've also
validated it using the W3C's web based validator without errors. But when
I
try to validate an XML instance against the Schema using Xerces-J v1.4.2,
Xerces reports Schema errors. Based on the cause of the errors either
Xerces is right and the other validators are wrong or vice-versa.
If it turns out that Xerces's Schema evaluation is correct could someone
suggest replacement language for the content-models that are causing the
errors.
The Schema is located at:
http://www.equitytg.com/XML/Schema/SB2Questionnaire.xsd
The errors are:
