How to remove mandatory option

[balaji_r]

Hi all,

I have created web form using alfresco labs3 to get the person details, which has 5 fields like name,age,phone number,address,education. In this i don't want to get person education details, so i want to make that as non mandatory field , how to do that?

Adding a "minOccurs=0" attribute should solve this for you.

Something like:

<xs:element name="keywords" type="xs:normalizedString" minOccurs="0"/>‍

Hope that helps.

Hi ScottF,

Suppose i have the field like

<xs:element name="phone" type="xs:integer"  minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="3"/>

How to make this as non mandatory ?

[scottf]

No problem glad it helped.

To answer your second question, simply change minOccurs="1" to minOccurs="0".

So your line would then be:

<xs:element name="phone" type="xs:integer" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="3"/>‍

Hi ScottF,

Again one more problem on mandatory conditions,

<xs:complexType name="qualification">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="UG" type="pr:UG" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="2"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

<xs:complexType name="UG">
<xs:sequence>
    <xs:element name="board" type="xs:normalizedString"/>
    <xs:element name="marks" type="xs:integer"/>
    <xs:element name="yearOfPassing" type="xs:gYear"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>


<xs:element name="Person">
   <xs:complexType>
   <xs:sequence>
                <xs:element name="name" type="xs:normalizedString"/>
            <xs:element name="age" type="xs:integer" minOccurs="0" />
          <xs:element name="educationDetails" type="pr:education" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
               </xs:sequence>
              </xs:complexType>
 </xs:element>
