xsd restriction on dateTime based on other dateTime

[Joris van Lier]

Hi All,
i'm trying to define an xml schema for validation with a restriction on
dateTime element based on another dateTime Element.

in English: end (dateTime) should be greater than or equal to begin
(dateTime)

Is it possible to define such restrictions in XSD?

regards

No. It might be possible with Schematron if that supports XSLT/XPath 2.0.

Thanks Martin, i'll have to rethink my approach, for now i'll validate that
part in C#.
