Hi all,

I am looking for the equivalent instruction of XSLT attribute @omit-xml-declaration in XQuery.

My input is :

<marc>
<marc:record xmlns:marc="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <marc:leader>01321nam a22002772a 4500</marc:leader>
    <c level="item">
      <did>
        <unitid type="division">1808001595</unitid>
      </did>
    </c>
</marc:record>
<marc>

My query is :

declare namespace marc="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim";

for $record in db:open('marcxml_full')/marc/marc:record
return
insert node $record/c into db:open('uk_parlement_ead')/dsc

The ouput is :

<c xmlns:marc="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" level="item">
      <did>
        <unitid type="division">1808001595</unitid>
      </did>
    </c>

As you can see, there are no marc: elements in this output, hence no need for the marc: namespace.
How to get rid of @xmlns:marc and xmlns:xsi ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

Regards

Yann
