Hi,


I'm trying to extend XHTML schema by redefining it's base XSD file in a new XSD declaring extra elements to extend XHTML. I'm currently stuck with declaring a single element (called "extradata" here) to mandatorily appear as last child node of xhtml:body. Here is (a reduced copy of) my XSD file's content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema targetNamespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
      xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
      xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
      elementFormDefault="qualified">

      <xs:redefine schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/SCHEMA/xhtml11.xsd">
            <xs:group name="xhtml.body.content">
                  <xs:sequence>
                        <xs:group ref="xhtml.body.content"/>
                        <xs:element name="extraData" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="xs:string"/>
                  </xs:sequence>
            </xs:group>
      </xs:redefine>
/xs:schema>

Validating an XHTML file including element extraData as last child of xhtml:body the following 2 errors are encountered by Java's DocumentBuilder:
