I think I asked this question long time back and forgot again.

Could anyone please tell me how to get the index of second occurrence of
a specific character in the string 

index-of(tokenize("a large land is big in area", ""), "a")

This will give all the index position of a. I need the index of second
position. Or is this something I have to loop through and exit the loop
when the counter is 2.

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] Index function in xquery

Is there an indexof function in xquery which returns the index of the
the occurring match I wanted to know the second occurrence for "a" in
the following word

 

"a large land is big in area"

 

I need to find out the index or the integer value of the second
occurrence of a.

 

Any advice

Rashid
