Attributes
- default
The default value for the attribute. This specified default takes precedence over any default provided on the AttributeType element it refers to.
- type
The name of an AttributeType element defined in this schema (or another schema indicated by the specified namespace). The supplied value must correspond to the name attribute on the AttributeType element. The type can include a namespace prefix.
- required
An indicator of whether the attribute must be present on the element. Optional if the required attribute is present on the referenced AttributeType.

Remarks
When the required attribute is set to yes and the default attribute specifies a default value, the supplied default value must always be the value; documents containing other attribute values are invalid.
When the required attribute is set to yes and no default is specified, each element whose type is declared to have the attribute must supply its value.
