Re: [Sedna-discussion] problem with output escaping in xquery

Hi,

there's no html serialization mode in Sedna and there's no way to
serialize different tags using different serialization modes.


there is a couple of way to get non-escaped strings out of Sedna, but
they are Sedna-specific and somewhat dangerous in the regard that
returned result might become not valid XML.

one way is to say that all &lt; and &gt; need to be serialized as < and >:

declare option se:character-map "&lt;=<";
declare option se:character-map "&gt;=>";

let $det := 
<el><ConditionSpecification><HTML>U&lt;sub&gt;dc&lt;/sub&gt;</HTML></ConditionSpecification></el>,
    $symbol := $det/ConditionSpecification/HTML/text()
return $symbol


this way is bad in the sense that you have no control over which
strings are serialized correctly and which without escaping &lt; and
&gt;.
another way is to manually replace &gt; and &lt; symbols with some
unused symbols using fn:replace or fn:translate (unicode actually has
some reserved ranges which are useful for such purposes) and then to
specify that these symbols should be serialized as '<'  and '>'; like
this:

declare option se:character-map "&#xE805;=<";
declare option se:character-map "&#xE806;=>";

let $det := 
<el><ConditionSpecification><HTML>U&lt;sub&gt;dc&lt;/sub&gt;</HTML></ConditionSpecification></el>,
    $symbol := $det/ConditionSpecification/HTML/text()
return fn:translate($symbol, "&lt;&gt;", "&#xE805;&#xE806;")
