xs:annotation?, ( xs:element | xs:group | xs:choice | xs:sequence | xs:any )*
The xs:sequence
element
specifies that the definitions included inside it (xs:element
, xs:group
, xs:choice
, xs:sequence
, or xs:any
) must appear in the order they
are listed. When the xs:sequence
element is used outside an
xs:group
element, the maxOccurs
and minOccurs
attributes may set the number
of times this choice can happen. The default is 1, but it can be
set higher—even to unbounded
—allowing the creation of
elements that contain an arbitrary number of repetitions of a
particular sequence of elements.
