[XQuery Talk Mailing List Archive Home] [By Date] [By Thread] [By Subject] [By Author] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] XQuery Style ConventionsMichael Rys mrys at microsoft.comThu Oct 20 19:35:31 PDT 2005
 Note that your long-xml example is subject to the boundary whitespace setting in the XQuery prolog.
Also, I personally prefer
<div>{
$content-generated-elsewere
}</div>
over
<div>
{ $content-generated-elsewere }
</div>
for two reasons:
1. It does not generate different results regarding whitespaces
2. I can more easily edit (copy/paste) the XQuery expression...
Best regards
Michael
