Custom XML Schema simpleType

Hey all,

I want to define my own xs:simpleType (for example e-mail) for use in <xforms:bind nodeset="x" type="email"/>.
I red a thread about the same topic with dubinko of 2004. But there was no answer for that.

I know I can use xml schema for validation of my model-instance, but thats not what I want. I want to use attribute constraint in combination with attribute type, but with my own type.

I have seen some examples:
<xforms:model>
...
<xforms:bind nodeset="test" type="test">
<xs:simpleType name="test">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:maxLength value="5" />
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
...
</xforms:model>

But thats not working.

How can I write a costum simpleType and use it in ops?

thanks
clemens

Hi Clemens,

At this point, you cannot use custom types you have defined in your
schema with <xforms:bind type="...">. If you do not want to validate
the instance with a full schema, but want to have a simple
<xforms:bind> expression, a workaround is to write an XPath expression
that checks that the string has not more than 5 characters with
<xforms:bind constraint="...">.
