Hi all,

Can I somehow control the serialization of element contents? I want to use Xquery to generate parts of source code for javascript and put the generated code inside a script element on the webpage. Basically this:

define function web:display-graph($term) {
    <script>
    {
    string-join((
      'd3.select("#graph").graphviz().renderDot(',
      "'digraph  {a -> b}'",
      ');'
      ), out:nl())
    }
    </script>
}

But it doesn't work as the > character gets replaced with its corresponding HTML entity &gt;. Is there a way to circumvent this behaviour?

At which point or how/where do you serialize that "script" element? With
output method "html" the escaping should not take place.
