[opencms-dev] small issue with defaults in .xsd

[Fabian Huschka]

Hello,

you have to define the default values within the most outer schema (the 
one which is called to create the resource).
Further you have to specify the full path to pick the right node.

For example foo.xsd is nested within bar.xsd by the element name of 
SomeElement. Further foo.xsd contains the element AnotherElement. In 
case you want to set a default value for all AnotherElement(s) you have 
to add the following to *bar.xsd*.

<defaults>
	<default element="SomeElement/AnotherElement" value="abc"/>
</defaults>


If you have more than one element you can state explicitly which element 
you want to address by appending [# >=1 (index of element)] to the path.
Example picks the second SomeElement and the fifth AnotherElement. In 
case these elements do no not exist no error is thrown.

<defaults>
	<default element="SomeElement[2]/AnotherElement[5]" value="abc"/>
</defaults>


This works with multi-layer nested schemas too - only the path becomes 
longer and longer ;-).
