[xquery-talk] Context node for ancestor-or-self

This gives an error :

for $n in fn:document("xmark.xml")/site/people/person/emailaddress)
return fn:string-join(for $p in ancestor-or-self::* return
fn:name($p), "/")


Exception in thread "main" galapi.GalapiException: Failure("Context
item not defined")

I think this is because the processor cannot locate the context node
for ancestor-or-self. How does one specify the context node for
ancestor-or-self, $n in this case?

Thanks,
Padmapriya
