I looked at the schema document you've shared. The following fix seems to work for your problem <assert>, <xsd:assert test="if (matches(string(@target), '.*')) then true() else false()" xpathDefaultNamespace="##targetNamespace"/> i.e, we use a string() function around attribute node @target. The 'target' attribute within your schema has type annotation of xsd:IDREFS, therefore we seem to need this workaround.
