If a query returns text, it's text. You can set the content-type response header, if that helps. xquery version "1.0-ml"; "do we escape text output? 1< 2&& 2> 1" I have to escape '&' in the XQuery string, because of language requirements. But I don't see any escaping in the output.Well gee, that's simple enough! Thank you for the answer, I guess I should have just experimented a bit more before asking! I had tried queries like: 'hi ', 'there' as an attempt to emulate XSLT like <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="2.0"> <xsl:output method="text" /> <xsl:template match="/">hi there </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> and had been confused by the output words being joined instead of appearing on separate lines, and thought I was trying the wrong approach.
I think you're using 3.2? IIRC, that's one difference between 3.2 and 4.0: in 4.0 those strings would automatically become separate lines.
With 3.2, you can generate multi-line output in any of at least three ways: you can put newlines directly into strings (no escaping needed), or use codepoints-to-string(), or wrap each string in a computed text node: text { 'hi' }.
