Thanks, that worked like a charm.

Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] Is there a way to delete a stand-alone properties document?

First, why are you working with "stand-alone [un-sic.] properties documents"? 
Could your implementation be simplified by storing the properties in their own 
documents? There's no real advantage to a properties fragment, other than being 
able to access it with the same URI as its related document. Accessing the 
contents still requires a join between two fragments, just like with two 
separate documents. 

In your particular case, you should be able to remove the properties fragment 
with, xdmp:node-delete(xdmp:document-properties($uri)).

[MarkLogic Dev General] Is there a way to delete a stand-alone properties document?

[Steve Anderson]

I'm doing some work with stand-along properties documents, and I want to be
able to delete them.  I know I can delete all the properties with a

xdmp:document-set-properties($uri, ())

but that leaves an empty properties document hanging around.  Is there a
way to delete it?

Thanks,

  Steve
