Hi Yann, The common way to do this is as Martin proposed: You can strip namespaces via a recursive function. See [1] for an example.
As this is a frequently asked feature, it would about time to define a mode or built-in function for this purpose in BaseX. An equivalent solution for exclude-result-prefixes could also be proposed for XQuery 4.0 [2]… Salutations, Christian [1] https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg13678.html [2] https://github.com/qt4cg/qtspecs/issues On Wed, Aug 25, 2021 at 5:54 PM Martin Honnen <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Am 25.08.2021 um 17:41 schrieb Yann NICOLAS (ABES): > > Did you see my other suggestion in the first answer to try to change your > XQuery code to use > > insert node $record/c ! element { node-name() } { @*, node() } into > db:open('uk_parlement_ead')/dsc > > Oh, i missed it !
