Hi Rob.
Have you had a look at http://xqdoc.org <http://xqdoc.org/> ? There are XQuery scripts available to translate the XHTML for the XPath F&O into xqDoc XML ... this sounds somewhat similar to what you want to accomplish. At one point, I also had scripts that translated MarkLogic XHTML (from their documentation format) into the neutral xqDoc XML format ... although, I never published these scripts on the web site. These would have been for earlier versions of MarkLogic (3.1 and possibly 3.2). I have not tried these scripts for the 4.0 XHTML documentation. If you go to the following URL http://xqdoc.org/enhanced/default.html You can get an idea for how the xqDoc XML (stored in MarkLogic) is then presented. In essence, I think this is what you are describing. Additional features (such as search) could have been easily added to the xqDoc presentation, but we were focused on keeping this vendor neutral ... and as you well know XQuery and search quickly diverges into vendor proprietary extensions. In any case, drop me a note separately if you want to discuss this more. I would be happy to look around for the MarkLogic transformation scripts I had previously used. Darin. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Whitby, Rob, CMG Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2008 9:25 AM To: General Mark Logic Developer Discussion Subject: RE: [MarkLogic Dev General] API reference available in XML? Can anyone help me with this? Or maybe put me in contact with someone who can?

Hi all, especially MarkLogic employees... As a learning project I'm planning on writing a new interface to the function reference - powered, obviously, by MarkLogic. I think the current version http://developer.marklogic.com/pubs/4.0/apidocs/All.html <http://developer.marklogic.com/pubs/4.0/apidocs/All.html> has some room for usability improvements (eg adding a search). I was hoping to load the html into ML and create an XML fragment per function, but that isn't going to be as easy as I hoped because the html is pretty nasty (nested tables, inline styles, the lot). So I wonder if someone at MarkLogic would be kind enough to provide the function reference in whatever format (surely xml?) is used to generate the html. This is a purely personal project, and I'd be more than happy to release it as open source when i'm done. Who knows, it may even prove to be a useful tool for the community! thanks a lot, Rob
