Kari,
There are two different issues with your code that are causing problems.
First off, any time in XQuery that you return two or more XML nodes as part of a
sequence within parentheses (as opposed to part of a full XML tree structure),
they need to be comma separated just like any other items in a sequence. So just
as you need to say
return ( "a", "b")
you need to say
return ( <?instruction here?>, <element>my element</element> )
with a comma.
BUT: "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>" is not a processing instruction,
it is an XML declaration, and you can't include it as part of a simple sequence.
This will throw an error:
(
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>,
<doc><p>text</p></doc>
)
In order to output the XML declaration, wrap your XML inside the XQuery document
constructor, like so:
if ($returnRSS) then
document {
<rss> ... </rss>
}
and the output will include "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>".
If you need to change the default serialization options (for example, to change
character encoding, or to indent output), see

I may be going about this wrong, but I was trying to insert the xml marker

Seems like a common thing that would be desired, but my websearch didn't find
the answer. Any tips here?
if ($returnRSS) then (
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:sailthru="http://www.sailthru.com/rss-extension";>
