Re: [basex-talk] Fwd: concat string in for loop

[Christian Grün]

Cześć, Jaroslwy,

as XML serialization was originally not built for outputting text, the
handling of whitespaces is a little tricky. However, you can benefit
from the new XQuery 3.0 "item-separator" output option:

  declare option output:item-separator '\n';
  concat("text",'
',"additional text"),
  <root><a>element-a</a><b>element-b</b></root>/*/string()

If you want to stick with XQuery 1.0, you can try string-join():

string-join((
  "text", "additional text",
  <root><a>element-a</a><b>element-b</b></root>/*
), '&#10;')
