Thanks for pointing out the XQuery 3.0 functions, Matthias!

fn:path is indeed supported, but I want a function that will do the same
as fn:path, minus any of the values of “[1]”. Plus, since my current
crop of documents don’t have any associated namespaces, the processor
that I’m using prepends “Q{}” before each path. So, with the previous
a/b/c example, I get the following:

/Q{}a[1]/Q{}b[1]/Q{}c[3]

But all I want is:

/a/b/c[3]

I’ll try working on it again later. Thanks again,

Mark


sounds like

replace(path(),'\[1\]|Q{}','')

will do what you want.
