Thanks. Your query does not yield “Value has more than one item”, at least with the latest snapshot of BaseX. But maybe you are expecting another result?

Hi Christian,
I was already kicking myself for rushing and not providing a SCE! Please see the code below, and thanks.
declare option output:method 'json';
declare variable $authors := <authors>
<author> <given-name>Robert A</given-name> <surname>Sanders</surname> </author> <author> <given-name>Emily</given-name> <surname>Chapel</surname> </author></authors>;
map {
"authors": [ (for $b in $authors/author return map{"fn":$b/*:given-name/text(), "ln":$b/*:surname/text()}) ]}

Hi Constantine,
(: just assume $authors is populated ...:)
Could you provide us with a little self-contained example? Because there are all kinds of populations out there.
TIA as well,
Christian
