Re: [basex-talk] [xquery-talk] say how to get newline working
I need to convert to text mode by hand: $ basex file.xq|perl -pwle 's/[^]+//g' As all text serialization in Xquery can't deal with the same line concept... unless one hardwires the line separators (0x0A) in via string-join, which doesn't sound much like serialization to me. There are 2 ways of approaching this, one is a query returning multiple items that must then be combined somehow outside of the query, or a query that returns a single item. Because you've gone with the former, you've now hit a problem of how those items are being combined. You want newlines, but other people might want something else, like a single space, or no space at all. So the easy way, is to just return a single item using string-join. That said, the code you posted had an output method of html and returned td elements... which suggests you just want indent set? -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com ___ BaseX-Talk mailing list BaseX-Talk@mailman.uni-konstanz.de https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/mailman/listinfo/basex-talk

I've added the following suggestion to the Bugzilla entry: I've looked up the XQuery Serialization Spec.: Step 3 in Section 2, Sequence Normalization, contains the sub-sentence separated by a single space [1], which would probably have to be extended to take an additional serialization parameter into account. An XQuery 3.0 expression that uses the parameter could e.g. look as follows: declare option output:separator #10;; (1 to 10) Opinions are welcome.

All I know is using
$ cat file.xq
(: Make bus timetable going westbound past Zaokeng :)
declare option db:parser html;
declare option output:method html; (: etc., not poorly supported
text though :)
declare function local:d($M){
doc(concat(http://www.fybus.com.tw/data/;, $M))
};
let $line:=(1/067b.htm,city/90.htm,city/207.htm, city/259.htm,
city/267.htm)
let $name:=(6572, 90, 207, 259, 267)
let $correction:=(23,4,23,2,29)
for $l at $c in $line, $i in
distinct-values(local:d($l)//*:tr/*:td[position()=2 and contains(.,:)])
let $t := xs:time(concat($i, ':00')) + xs:dayTimeDuration('PT1M') *
$correction[$c]
order by $t
return TD{if(contains($l,259) or (contains($l,90)and
contains($i,:00)))then 平
else 每,substring(string($t), 1, 5),

Curious, are you looking for help or just to insult people ? No one is insisting on anything If you actually want help then we need some more information like what processor you are using , what you are trying to achieve and what you've tried and what are the results. If you just want to insult people you've done that already successfully and we can't help much more. -David -Original Message- From: jida...@jidanni.org [mailto:jida...@jidanni.org] Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2012 9:15 PM To: l...@w3.org Cc: David Lee; t...@x-query.com; basex-talk@mailman.uni-konstanz.de Subject: Re: [xquery-talk] say how to get newline working LREQ == Liam R E Quin l...@w3.org writes: LREQ On Sat, 2012-03-10 at 22:56 +, David Lee wrote: There is, but you have to call XQuery natively instead of via the command line LREQ ??!?

XQuery is not really a line-oriented language. I don't agree with you that it should be as easy as seq 1 3 any more than it should be easy to process XML documents recursively an element at a time with sed, or to use grep only within certain elements. Unix is line-oriented, XQuery is XML-oriented. This is true regardless of whether you used Control Data computers. Having said that, I can imagine a BaseX feature request - or maybe even an XQuery feature request - for how to separate items in a sequence when serializing. Such a request could be filed against the 3.0 serialization spec at https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/ and the XQuery and XSLT Working Groups will discuss it.
