I belive the issue is that of validation.
MarkLogic is a validating XQuery parser so is validating xml:id
against the standard XML schemas. "-ptr" is not a valid xml:id
Saxon HE (I presume you are using HE), otoh, is not a validating
XQuery engine.
Maybe so, but I did discover recently that Saxon HE does not load the
id() table when the token is not a valid xml:id value:
t:\ftemp>type david.xq
let $in := document { <input xml:id="abc"/> }
return ( 'Result with ''abc'':',count($in/id('abc')) ),
let $in := document { <input xml:id="-ptr"/> }
return ( 'Result with ''-ptr'':',count($in/id('-ptr')) )
t:\ftemp>xquery david.xq
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Result with 'abc': 1 Result
with '-ptr': 0
t:\ftemp>
I hope this is helpful.
