Liam, Thanks for help, Basex implements serialize function. This can do:
let $params := <output:serialization-parameters xmlns:output=" http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization";> <output:omit-xml-declaration value="yes"/> </output:serialization-parameters> let $sf := fn:concat(fn:serialize(<h3>Features:</h3>,$params), fn:serialize(<br/>,$params), fn:serialize( <ul> <li>{$f1}</li> <li>{$f2}</li> <li>{$f3}</li> </ul>, $params)) On Mon, Dec 2, 2013 at 3:44 PM, Liam R E Quin <l...@w3.org> wrote: > On Mon, 2013-12-02 at 15:29 -0500, Erol Akarsu wrote: > > I would like to generate CDATA of one xmk construct like this. > [...] > > let $allfs := <record> > > <name>{$name}</name> > > <features> > > <![CDATA[ > > <h3>Features:</h3> > > <br/> > > <ul> > > <li>{$f1}</li> > > <li>{$f2}</li> > > <li>{$f3}</li> > > </ul> > > ]]> > > </features> > > </record> > > Watch out that if $f1 (say) contains the string ]]> you'd be liable to a > cdata injection attack. > > Having said that, no, I'd probably write an e() function, > declare function my:e($name as xs:string, $content as xs:string) > as xs:string > { > return concat("<", $name, ">", $content, "</", $name, ">") > } > > and use my:e("ul", > concat(my:e("li", $f1), > my:e("li", $f2), > my:e("li", $f3)) > and so on.
