[basex-talk] relative path between two element in xquery

Hi,

How can I construct the relative path between two elements in an xml-file.

Most probably overlooking the obvious I ended up with the solution below, which, unfortunately, triggers an runtime-error.

My not-working solution:

let $xml :=

<xml>

<A>

<B/>

</A>

</xml>

let $b := $xml//B

let $a := $xml//A

return replace( string( path( $b))

, string( path( $a))

, ''

)

Two questions:

- How to retrieve the relative path between two element within a xml-file?

- Why does the solution above trigger an error? Can it be a bug? ( oops, three questions)

Thnx in advance for the reply,

Rob Stapper
