Maybe specify a default value in the call to xdmp:get-request-field: let $var := xdmp:get-request-field("non-existent-param","")

Also, there is no warning that the function is not being called, or that there is an error in the parameter. Anyone know why this is? Try running the code and you'll see what I mean. It's almost like there is a hidden try/catch around my code - no errors raised and doesn't show that nothing was called.

Maybe approach with try get instead...? try { 1 div 0 } catch ($e) { $e } Or just use an if then else for checking if your field exists...? if(xdmp:get-request-field("q")) then local:search-results() else ...
