[MarkLogic Dev General] xhtml loading question

Tue Aug 14 14:04:04 PDT 2007

Dev, you need to include the XHTML namespace in the element QNames you
create for use in the cts:search() if you want the query to match those
elements.  This would work:

cts:search(xdmp:directory(('/'),"infinity"),
cts:and-query((cts:element-attribute-value-query(fn:QName("http://www.w3
.org/1999/xhtml", "meta"), xs:QName("name"),
"org"),cts:element-attribute-value-query(fn:QName("http://www.w3.org/199
9/xhtml", "meta"), xs:QName("content"), "abc-de")))) 

Note that the attribute QNames don't require namespace URIs because,
having not been prefixed in the original source, they are in the no
namespace.  If you wanted to use the fn:QName() function for
consistency, this form also works:

cts:search(xdmp:directory(('/'),"infinity"),
cts:and-query((cts:element-attribute-value-query(fn:QName("http://www.w3
.org/1999/xhtml", "meta"), fn:QName("", "name"),
"org"),cts:element-attribute-value-query(fn:QName("http://www.w3.org/199
9/xhtml", "meta"), fn:QName("", "content"), "abc-de")))) 

Regards,
James

	James,

	This is the query used to load the document,
	xdmp:document-insert("/content/htmlchk66.html",
	<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
lang="en">
	<body> 
	<meta name="org" content="abc-de" />
	<meta name="product" content="electronics" />
	<meta name="education" content="school" />
	<meta name="test" content="answer123" /> 
	</body>
	</html>)

	and my cts query is 
	cts:search(xdmp:directory(('/'),"infinity"),
cts:and-query((cts:element-attribute-value-query(xs:QName("meta"),
xs:QName("name"),
"org"),cts:element-attribute-value-query(xs:QName("meta"),
xs:QName("content"), "abc-de")))) 

	This query returns result, if I load document without xmlns.

	Thanks,
	Dev

		Dev, can you send the cts:search() call you're using for
your search?

			James and Mike,

			How to resolve
(xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml") namespace conflict in xquery; I
loaded html document (which has xmlns namespce defined) to MarkLogic and
tried to query its element by using cts:search(), but it returns empty
row. 

			Can you help me to resolve namespace issue?

			Thanks,
			Dev
