Re: [XQUERY]Section3.2.1.2 - Node Tests, examples not updated

Margaret,
Good catch! In addition to the errors identified in your note, there are 
some other errors in the same section. For example, 
"element(hospital/staff/person)" is no longer valid syntax, and 
"element(person)" no longer respects substitution groups. I will correct 
all these errors in the next edition of the XPath and XQuery documents.
Thanks for your helpful comment!

[XQUERY]Section3.2.1.2 - Node Tests, examples not updated






WD-xquery-20040723 
XQuery Working Draft, section 3.2.1.2 
The examples were not updated  to match the change in syntax. The TypeName 
no longer has a wildcard option. 
element(person, *) matches any element node whose name is person (or is in 
the substitution group headed by person), without any restriction on type 
annotation.
..... 
attribute(price, *) matches any attribute whose name is price, regardless 
of its type annotation.
