  Hi

you're stuck with the for-each... perhaps (depending on what
else you use it for) it should be typed as element()+  and
then you could use the slash operator.

  If you are sure they will be nodes, just use node()+.  If you want to
be able to use atomic strings as well, you'll have to use the for each.

Hi Florent,

I suppose if they are <code> elements and you want to be as
restrictive as possible, it should really be "element(code)+"...
although I don't often put the element names in, probably because it
seems a bit pointless when the select statement selects only those
nodes eg

select="//code" as="element(code)+"

If it does offer any benefits over just element()+ in that case it
would be interesting to know...



cheers
