As I said, it depended on the particular environment. I don't believe any of
the vendors (except myself! :-) accept a naked "//" for the top-level
context. Ergo the appropriate use of document() in each case:
Quip 2.1.1.1
let $doc := document("data/xmp-data.xml")
return $doc//*[1]
IPSI-XQ 1.01
let $doc := document("data/xmp-data.xml") ...
Microsoft
let $doc := document("http://www.bn.com/bib.xml") ...
X-Hive
let $doc := document("/XQuery/docs/XMP/bib.xml") ...
Galax (select 'Use Case XMP')
let $doc := $bib ...
OpenLink Virtuoso Server (worked only in IE, not Netscape 4.7)
let $doc := document("bib.xml") ...
Cognetic Systems XQuantum database:
I couldn't find a query that would compile. It looks like 'let' isn't
implemented yet.
(What's a minor keyword or two? :-)
