Thank you Martin! I used output method "xhtml". After changing it to "html" the string was not escaped any longer. Great!

Best regards, Kristian Kankainen

Hi all,

Can I somehow control the serialization of element contents? I want to use Xquery to generate parts of source code for javascript and put the generated code inside a script element on the webpage. Basically this:

define function web:display-graph($term) { <script> { string-join(( 'd3.select("#graph").graphviz().renderDot(', "'digraph {a -> b}'", ');' ), out:nl()) } </script> }

But it doesn't work as the > character gets replaced with its corresponding HTML entity &gt;. Is there a way to circumvent this behaviour?

At which point or how/where do you serialize that "script" element? With output method "html" the escaping should not take place.
