It might be that your XQuery engine has its own conventions for how
to return the result of a query when the result is a sequence of
strings. You don't say which engine it is, or what API you are
using; it's possible that it's following the convention of some
XPath 1.0 APIs which only output the first item in a sequence of
results. <br>
<br>
If you can't find any API switch or similar to change the way your
XQuery engine returns its results, you could change the query so
that it concatenates all the strings into a single string (by means
of another call on string-join(), applied to the sequence of strings
that the current query returns). If that doesn't work, then it
really is a bug in the XQuery engine, and it's time to choose a
different engine.<br>
