Tom MasciovecchioSubject: fn:replace() inserting spaces in results?
Author: Tom Masciovecchio
Date: 14 Mar 2010 12:53 PM
This code:

xquery version "1.0";
let $doc := element data {
element row {'abc'},
element row {'def'}}
return
element results {
for $a in $doc/node()
return
$a/node()
}

returns (as expected) <results>abcdef</results>

If I change the last line to $fn:replace($a/node(), 'x', 'y'), i.e.,

xquery version "1.0";
let $doc := element data {
element row {'abc'},
element row {'def'}}
return
element results {
for $a in $doc/node()
return
fn:replace($a/node(), 'x', 'y')
}

The results contain a space between the 'c' and 'd': <results>abc def</results>

Where is the extra space coming from?

Thanks.
