XML Schema: element containing any XHTML

Hi,

after hours spent Googling I'm undone. What I need is to create a XML schema allowing some element to contain any XHTML element(s).

This is my XML file I'm trying to validate according to the schema:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<myelement xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="test2.xsd">
 <p>hello!</p>
</myelement>

test2.xsd:
Somewhere I found this should work:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
	<xs:element name="myelement">
		<xs:complexType>
			<xs:sequence>
				<xs:any namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" processContents="strict" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
			</xs:sequence>
		</xs:complexType>
	</xs:element>
</xs:schema>

but I'm getting this error:
File Untitled3.xml is not valid.
Element <p> is not allowed under element <myelement>.
Reason: The following elements are expected at this location {http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml}
Error location: myelement / p
Details
cvc-model-group: Element <p> unexpected by type '{anonymous}' of element <myelement>.
cvc-elt.5.2.1: The element <myelement> is not valid with respect to the actual type definition '{anonymous}'.

I also tried importing namespace and this:

Code:

<xs:any namespace="##any" processContents="strict" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>

but with same (no) results.

Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong?
Thanks
