Hi all,

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

In the Query prolog you can declare

declare namespace output = "http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization";

declare option output:method 'xml';
declare option output:omit-xml-declaration 'yes';

Thanks Martin.

In the user interface, it is working when the xml source is stored in a let variable, but it's not when the xml source is retrieved from a BaseX db.

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

declare namespace output = "http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization";

declare option output:method 'xml';
declare option output:omit-xml-declaration 'yes';

for $record in db:open('marcxml_full')//marc:record[1]

return
$record/c
