Hi,

I would like to specify in my XSD that the "Documentation" element can
be added everywhere in the XML document. A bit like the
xs:documentation node.

How can i declare this in my XSD?

An example
<a>
<b>
<Documentation/>
</b>
</a>

is valid

but also

<a>
<Documentation/>
<b>
<Documentation/>
</b>
<Documentation/>
</a>

Thanks for the help
David

What you are asking for is equivalent to an inclusion in SGML. You
might want to look the SGML way if its an option to you. The price you
pay for more flexibility is a bigger complexity headache :).
