basically no. If you have a pointer to solid litterature showing this is even possible (attributes ? content ?) please pass the pointer but in general I just think your request makes little sense. > some thing like this > <xs:element name="parent"> > <xs:complexType> > <xs:sequence> > <xs:element name ="child1"/> > </xs:sequence> > </xs:sequence.> > </xs:element> libxml compiles to element content to automatas, not to regexps, those automatas have counters. they don't have a regexp serialization form in general, that might be doable, it may as well been unreadable (e.g. xs:all), and I don't see how you would express rules about attributes, content, and namespaces.
