Neil,
It will work with text, but you have to do a little more work. cts:highlight()
wants an element or document node, so you can wrap your text in an element
constructor as you pass it in, then go back to text on the way out:
let $doc :=
"I have some text that includes the words Doc, ume, and nt."
. . . .
return
cts:highlight(element doc
{$doc},$q,local:replace($cts:queries,$replace))/text()
I'm not sure about the rest of your question, but since you don't want to
expand on it, I won't ask you to. :) As Geert suggests, CPF will let you work
through a series of steps asynchronously, manage state transitions, etc, if
that is an approach you'd like to consider. I hope I didn't confuse the subject
by suggesting you store the queries as documents to manage your string
replacing more efficiently. The idea is otherwise the same - documents are
"enriched" one at a time by replacing multiple string values with a new value.

Kelly,
Does that approach work with text documents?
Another issue is that, for reasons I do not want to expand on here, we want to
process one document at a time through the step discussed here along with other
prior and following steps, so I am not sure the benefits of this approach over
the fn:replace() function. But it is certainly a interesting alternative.
Neil.
