Just as a side note in the case you do not know that already. The latest XQuery 1.1 working draft (see http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery-11/) contains the concept of an outer for. In fact, your outer for query in your first mail was already correct with respect to XQuery 1.1 (except for a missing quote).


The Zorba XQuery processor already implements most of XQuery 1.1. You can give your outer for query a try at http://try.zorba-xquery.com/.

Do you need a for at all, if I understand your query, isn't it just
