Hi Geert,

Thanks for responding... Yes, this is really part of a much larger XQuery, this snippit just illustrates where I'm stuck. The value of $ex originates from a web-service call, which we use to create a which we then feed into xdmp:eval() - something like this...

let $status := <status><exception message="xxxx"/></status>,
    $error :=
<errorConditions>
<errorCondition message="Missing key(s). Please supply key(s) for this item and save or validate again."> <condition xpath="string(@message)='java.lang.Exception: integer_key (null) is not an integer'"/> <condition xpath="string(@message)='cvc-complex-type.4: Attribute ''value'' must appear on element ''integer_key''.'"/>
</errorCondition>
<errorCondition message="Missing key(s). Please supply key(s) for this item and save or validate again."> <condition xpath="string(@message)='cvc-complex-type.4: Attribute ''value'' must appear on element ''integer_key''.'"/>
</errorCondition>
</errorConditions>,
    $quotedStatus as xs:string := replace(xdmp:quote($status), "'", "''"),
    $matchedExceptions as element()* :=
        for $errorCondition as element() in $errorConditions/errorCondition
        let $conditions as element()* := $errorCondition/condition,
            $combinedXpath as xs:string :=
concat("xdmp:unquote('", $quotedStatus, "')", "/status/exception[",
                    string-join(
                        for $condition as element() in $conditions
                        return string($condition/@xpath),
                        " and "
                    ),
                "]")
        return xdmp:eval($combinedXpath)
return doSomeThingWithData($quotedStatus, $matchedExceptions)

Hi Wyatt,

Do you have to use xdmp:unquote for a particular reason? Otherwise you could do 
something like this:

<exception message="one 
of&apos;{{&quot;http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML&quot;:semantics}}&apos; is 
expected."/>

Kind regards,
Geert

I've been banging my head trying to figure this out - any
ideas would be much appreciated....

let $ex as xs:string := '<exception message="One of
''{&quot;http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML&quot;:semantics}''
  is expected."/>'
return xdmp:unquote($ex)

Always gives error "SystemID: XDMP-DOCSTARTTAGCHAR:
xdmp:unquote("<exception message=&quot;One of
'{&quot;http://www.w3.org/1998/M...";) -- Unexpected character
"/" in start tag at  line 1"

I've tried a variety fn:replace calls, but haven't yet found
the magic...

Thanks,
Wyatt
