Geert, So is that an issue or is it how it works.
Thanks Pradeep Maddireddy -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Geert Josten Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2009 5:14 PM To: General Mark Logic Developer Discussion Subject: RE: [MarkLogic Dev General] issue with XPATH Pradeep, Yes, I think the result should be the same. It looks like the first approach is interpreted as (doc(..)//b)[position() = 2]. Eric, Yes, a = b returns true if any item from sequence a is equal to any item in sequence b. You can best see it as an intersect on atomic values, returning all items in a that are also in b, but none in b that are not in a though.. Kind regards, Geert > Drs. G.P.H.
