Hi Michael,

seems like you want to rename the node „dat“ into „div“. So instead of recreating the node it feels much more natural to me to use XQuery Update to transform your node. It is as simple as that:

    <dat>text is <b>important</b>.</dat> update rename node . as "div"

Cheers

Betreff: [basex-talk] losses von tags?

Hello,

There is a problem in transforming data vom XML in HTML.

In XML there are HTML-tags included.

XML original: <dat>text is <b>important</b>.</dat>

HTML goal:  <div>text is <b>important</b>.</div>

(1) result: <div>text is important.</div>

let $data := <dat>text is <b>important</b>.</dat>
return
  <div>{$data/data()}</div>

(2) result: <div>text is important.</div>

let $data := <dat>text is <b>important</b>.</dat>
return
  <div>{$data/text()}</div>

(3) result: <div><dat>text is <b>important</b>.</dat></div>

let $data := <dat>text is <b>important</b>.</dat>
return
  <div>{$data}</div>

Is there another possibility to get the result desired?

Thanking you,
Michael
