XQuery<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hi,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'm a newbie in XQuery and i appreciate a answer to this doubt.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I store several XML documents in a Native XML Database (eXist).</DIV>
<DIV>In my organisation i have several collections with several XML files that
share the same structure. The following structure defines 2 collections A and
B. The collection A have 2 XML files and the collection B one. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>A</DIV>
<DIV> - 1.xml</DIV>
<DIV> - 2.xml</DIV>
<DIV>B</DIV>
<DIV> - 3.xml </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I have his XQuery file:</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>FOR $x in collection("A","B")<BR></DIV>
<DIV>WHERE ...</DIV>
<DIV>RETURN ?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If, for example, only the 2.xml and 3.xml were evaluate for TRUE in the
WHERE clause, i want to obtain the following XML data:</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><RESULTS></DIV>
<DIV><A>2.xml<A></DIV>
<DIV><B>3.xml</B></DIV>
<DIV></RESULTS></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>What should i put in the RETURN clause?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I can also have collections inside other collections...</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance</DIV>
