Neal WaltersSubject: Multiple items in return
Author: Neal Walters

I think this will be an obvious answer.

I'm learning this by example, and haven't seen any good examples with multiple variables in the return.

This is what I am trying:

<html>
{
let $file := doc("ISAFeed_July24B.xml")

for $item in $file//viewfmt
where $item/ccardex > ' '
order by $item/ccardex
return
<ExpireDate> {$item/ccardex} </ExpireDate>
<Acct>{$item/ftiacct}</Acct>
<Name> {$item/ftifnme} </Name>
<Price> {$item/itemprc} </Price>
<Amount> {$item/itemamt} </Amount>

}
</html>

It works fine when I have just one xml element and one value in the return.

The pop-up error says:
Syntax error, unexpected > (comparison operator), expecting "," or } [err:XPST00-3]

I'm guessing that it sees the "<" sign of "<Acct" as a less than sign?

Stylus Studio color-code every other xml pair of xml elements.
Do I have to use the concat function to string everything together?

I tried comma separating everything like this:

return
<ExpireDate> {$item/ccardex} </ExpireDate>,
<Acct> {$item/ftiacct}</Acct>,
<Name> {$item/ftifnme} </Name>,
<Price> {$item/itemprc} </Price>,
<Amount> {$item/itemamt} </Amount>
The Stylus Studio color look good, but error now says:
Syntax error, unexpected } [err:XPST0003]

Thanks,
Neal

Neal,

You need to wrap the elements with parenthesis () to make it a sequence or with a root element

return
(
<ExpireDate> {$item/ccardex} </ExpireDate>,
<Acct> {$item/ftiacct}</Acct>,
<Name> {$item/ftifnme} </Name>,
<Price> {$item/itemprc} </Price>,
<Amount> {$item/itemamt} </Amount>
)


or


return
<record>
<ExpireDate> {$item/ccardex} </ExpireDate>
<Acct> {$item/ftiacct}</Acct>
<Name> {$item/ftifnme} </Name>
<Price> {$item/itemprc} </Price>
<Amount> {$item/itemamt} </Amount>
</record>


or
