> I want to print out the value text but don't know how?Unlike elements, attributes are single nodes and don't have text() node children, and selecting the attribute adds that attribute node to the result. To get the value of the attribute you need to use the fn:string() function, using: fn:string(meta/@content) or meta/@content/fn:string(.) -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/ _______________________________________________ General mailing list General@developer.marklogic.com http://xqzone.com/mailman/listinfo/general
