FYI If this is running on a MarkLogic 4.2 or greater server, this might be one of those cases where it is a lot easier to use XSLT.

Other than that it looks reasonable at a glance. I think there is a Marklogic function xdmp:save, but you might get better info over on the MarkLogic mailing list. -Mike On 09/07/2012 08:44 AM, Mailing Lists Mail wrote: Dear All, I have the following requirement: There are 40 documents in my Mark Logic DB. I am trying to create one big XML that contains the dump of all the 40 documents.. ( small ones each is 32 kb) so it will look like: <container > <document id = "filename1.xml"> contents of this file </document> <document id = "filename2.xml"> contents of this file </document> <document id = "filename3.xml"> contents of this file </document> </container> and so on and so forth... The thing I also want to do is while making this tree, I must delete all the @flag attributes from <request> elements in all the documents.. SO the Container element that I am making should not contain @flag for the <request> ... My Attempt: declare namespace functx = "http://www.functx.com";; declare function functx:remove-attributes ($element as element(), $names as xs:string*) as element() { element { node-name($element)} { $element/@*[not(name() = $names)], for $child in $element/node() return if ($child instance of element()) then functx:remove-attributes-deep($child, $names) else $child } }; <container> { for $doc in doc() let $filename:= document-uri($doc) return ( <document id = "{$NAME}"> { (: Will the below work?? :) functx:remove-attributes($doc//*,'flag') , (: i now need to dump the contents ... How do I do this?? :) } </document> ) } </container> Any help will be highly appreciated... Thanks..
