Dear Ram,

You are right! I am using Turbo XML, as you can see in the attached screen
shot, It seems to have trouble dealing with extensions. It thinks Gender to
be an empty element.

I checked this in XML Spy that one of my colleague uses, and it correctly
reflects the element Gender to be of a mixed type and hence the instance
document gets validated without an error.

Thanks for taking time out to look into this issue.

Regards
-Sandeep

I had a a look at this.I could not find any problem here. Hi Ram,

The element Gender is "mixed", so you can add a text
node freely.  I also tested with an example <Gender>Male</Gender> and it is
validated. We use XML Spy. It could be the validator that you are using is
giving problems. Please advise.

With kind regards
