etc When you say returned as, i am guessing you mean that's what shows up in the BaseX "results" window, which uses "adaptive" serialization. You could use string-join(your query here, ' ') of course, to make a single string; in that window sequences are shown one item per line. liam -- Liam Quin, https://www.delightfulcomputing.com/ Available for XML/Document/Information Architecture/XSLT/ XSL/XQuery/Web/Text Processing/A11Y training, work & consulting.
