XSchema Problem with xs:any

[Tjerk Wolterink]

I've a element definition like this:

--
<xs:element name="content">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:any namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"/>
<xs:element ref="message"/>
</xs:choice>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
--

But when i validate the following xml:

--
<content>
<p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Welkom bij <b>Wolterink</b> Webdesign<br/>
</p>
</content>
--


I get the following error:

--
[Xerces-J 2.7.1] Validating "index.xml" against
"file:/D:/development/webapps/XCManager/web/WEB-INF/schemas/page.xsd" ...
Ln 8 Col 43 - cvc-complex-type.2.4.c: The matching wildcard is strict,
but no declaration can be found for element 'p'.
1 Errors

Ln 8 Col 43 is the following line:
<p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

How can this be??
p is a element in the xhtml namespace so it is
valid for:
<xs:any namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"/>

What am i doing wrong?

The error message tells you what you need to know --- "The matching
wildcard is strict".

If you don't want strict processing, you have to say

<xs:any namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
processContents="lax"/>
