Hi, Krishna: The persisted document has a serious problem. Everything up to the item element is persisted as XML.
The contents of the item element are also XML but are persisted as text. That's why you have to unquote to get at the nested XML. You should take a look at the code that's persisting the document and fix that code so the whole tree is persisted as XML. Then, xdmp:node-replace() will work without issue on the nested elements. Hoping that helps, Erik Hennum ________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of krishnanghri reddy [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2016 9:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] Need help in updating xml Hi, I have an xml in the below format.
