| <h1 class="topictitle1">Adding an any element</h1> |
| <div><p>You can use the <samp class="codeph">any</samp> element to provide something |
| similar to a DTD's ANY content model, however, it must be done in conjunction |
| with namespaces. This enables you to include any well-formed XML content, |
| such as an HTML Web page that conforms to XHTML 1.0 syntax.</p><div class="skipspace"><p>For example:</p> |
| <div class="p"><pre><element name = "MyWebPage"> |
| <complexType> |
| <any namespace ="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml> |
| < minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" processContents="skip"/> |
| </complexType> |
| </element></pre> |
| </div> |
| <p>The above schema fragment allows a <var class="varname"><MyWebPage></var> element |
| to contain any well-formed XHTML data that appears in the specified namespace.</p> |
| <p>The |
| following instructions were written for the Resource perspective, but they |
| will also work in many other perspectives. </p> |
| <p>To add an <samp class="codeph">any</samp> element, |
| follow these steps:</p> |
| </div> |
| <ol><li class="skipspace"><span>In the Outline view, right-click the content model that you want |
| to work with and click <span class="uicontrol">Add Any</span>. </span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Select the new <samp class="codeph">any</samp> element.</span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>In the Properties view of the schema editor, for a <b>namespace</b> value, |
| you can select <b>##any</b> (this allows any well-formed XML from any namespace), <b>##local </b> (this |
| allows any well-formed XML that is not declared to be in a namespace), <b>##other </b> (this |
| allows any well-formed XML that is not from the target namespace of the type |
| being defined) or <b>##targetNamespace </b> (which is shorthand for the target |
| namespace of the type being defined). </span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>For a <span class="uicontrol">processContents</span> value, you can select <b>skip</b> (the |
| XML processor will not validate the attribute content at all), <b>lax</b>(the |
| XML processor will validate the attribute content as much as it can), or <b>strict </b> (the |
| XML processor will validate all the attribute content).</span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">minOccurs</span> value is the number of times |
| the <samp class="codeph">any</samp> element must appear. You can select <span class="uicontrol">0</span> if |
| you want the element to be optional; otherwise, select <span class="uicontrol">1</span>. </span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>The <span class="uicontrol">maxOccurs</span>value is the maximum number |
| of times an <samp class="codeph">any</samp> element may appear. You can select <span class="uicontrol">0</span>, <span class="uicontrol">1</span>, |
| or, to indicate there is no maximum number of occurrences, <span class="uicontrol">unbounded</span>.</span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Click the <span class="uicontrol">Documentation</span> tab if you want |
| to provide any information about this element.</span> The <span class="uicontrol">Documentation</span> page |
| is used for human readable material, such as a description, and the <span class="uicontrol">App |
| Info</span> page can be used to provide information for applications. </li> |
| </ol> |
