Hi Richard, According to the section in the working draft of XUpdate about variables (see http://www.xmldb.org/xupdate/xupdate-wd.html#N74cbee) they "can be an object of any of the types that can be returned by expressions". So it seems that this is a limitation of the implementation. It should be corrected in the next release of XUpdate. regards, Jeroen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Contact administrator: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Read archived messages: http://archive.xmldb.org/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
