[XQuery Update Newbie] Rename all element nodes (in no namespace) to the same name, but in a namespace?

[Ghislain Fourny]

Hi Roger,

How about

for $i in doc('FitnessCenter.xml')//*
  return rename node $i as QName('http://www.gym.com', concat('gym:', local-name($i)))

?

Using a non-empty prefix, it should not conflict with the default namespace binding.

Kind regards,
Ghislain
