Hello, I have a string that I want to parse using fn:parse-xml-fragment (in BaseX 8.4.1). I noticed that there seemed to be a difference when wrapping the string in a string constructor versus plain quotes.
Using the string constructor seems to require a second function call in order to parse the XML. The following three expressions illustrate the difference. Numbers 2 and 3 return parsed XML, whereas number 1 returns the original, unparsed string. Is this the expected behavior when using string constructors? 1. ``[<span start="" end="3">Sed</span> ut perspiciatis]`` => parse-xml-fragment() 2. ``[<span start="" end="3">Sed</span> ut perspiciatis]`` => parse-xml-fragment() => parse-xml-fragment() 3. '<span start="" end="3">Sed</span> ut perspiciatis' => parse-xml-fragment() -- Tim A. Thompson Metadata Librarian (Spanish/Portuguese Specialty) Princeton University Library
