Hi E. Wray,
1. basex-node results are always strings but you can use JSON.parse on that string, if that is appropriate because for example of the serialization used. See [1],[2] for examples 2. Do you mean you would like query.bind [3] to automatically convert "undefined" to ()? If so, or indeed if you mean something different, best to create an issue in the basex-node project on github.

Andy,
- I am pelase that JSON result objects are mapped to JavaScript
objects. Are undefined values handled (e.g. XQuery () vs JavaScript undefined)? 2. I am using basex-node and having trouble binding objects in a query. I would like to have the object result in an XQUERY map. It would be nice if undefined values as defined above are handled as well. For now I have to do something like this'$x := map ' +JSON.stringify(obj).replace('undefined', '()').
I hope this make sense.
