[opencms-dev] Nested xsd elemnts

[Jochen Graf]

Hi Laura,

nested contents can be used to create groups of content fields that can 
be reused, this is right. A typical example is the nested link content 
in the Mercury template [1] which is reused by many other Mercury 
contents such as link sequence [2], organization [3], and so on.

Model groups are one level higher. This would be the combination of a 
linksequence, an organization, and a section, for example.

Nested contents are not restricted to XSD choice elements, you can use 
them as part of an XSD sequence as well, see the link sequence [2] as an 
example.

Concerning "nested folders do not show up": this is surely a problem 
with your formatter. The OpenCms log file should provide more information.

Hope this helps

Jochen
