recursive declaration of elements in XML Schema

[Jain Saurabh]

Hi
I need to know how can i define Xml Schema which support recursive declaration of elements
(e.g)
<element1>
<element1> </element1>
</element1>

Secondly, Can i define CDATA Section in XML schema against any element contents?
Thirdly if i want to represent bytes in xml file through base-64 encoding then how should i declare that in Xml Schema ?
Thanks in advance
