Optional. Specifies the minimum number of times this element can occur in the parent element. The value can be any number >= 0. Default value is 1. This attribute cannot be used if the parent element is the schema element

I have an optional element, the parent element is the schema element. Since I can't use the minOccurs attribute, how can I get my XML to validate against the schema when this info isn't sent?

"the parent element is the schema element" -- wait, what? I think I know what that means, but just so that I get it... whaaat? If it is what I think it means, it makes sense... you have to have one root, you can only HAVE one root... if it's parent is the schema then you're in the root element, and just like in the Highlander, there can be only one.
