28537 2015-04-22 16:41:38 +0000 [FO30] [FO31] Examples on fn:element-with-id uses fn:id and is not aligned with accompanying text 2015-05-06 01:21:14 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified XPath / XQuery / XSLT Functions and Operators 3.1 Recommendation PC Windows NT CLOSED FIXED P2 minor --- 1 abel.braaksma mike jim.melton public-qt-comments oldest_to_newest 119757 0 abel.braaksma 2015-04-22 16:41:38 +0000 Under Examples, under 14.7.2 fn:element-with-id (FO30) and 14.5.2 fn:element-with-id (FO31) the text presently reads (numbering mine): 1) The expression id('ID21256')/name() returns "employee". (The xml:id attribute has the is-id property, so the employee element is selected.). 2) The expression id('E21256')/name() returns "employee". (Assuming the empnr element is given the type xs:ID as a result of schema validation, the element will have the is-id property and is therefore its parent is selected. Note the difference from the behavior of fn:id.). Text of (1) is technically correct, but the section is about fn:element-with-id, not about fn:id. Replacing id('ID21256')/name() with element-with-id('ID21256')/name() seems to make more sense. Text of (2) is technically wrong, as id(...) returns the element with is-id property, not its parent. Replacing id(...) with element-with-id(...) fixes this. And a suggestion: I noticed that fn:idref does not have any example. Not a big deal, but the indirection of this function, and the same question as with fn:id vs fn:element-with-id (i.e., does it select its parent or the attribute/element with is-idref property) seems to warrant one ;). PS: I filed this bug under FO30, but it applies equally to FO31 as well. 119772 1 mike 2015-04-22 22:34:06 +0000 Reclassified as FO31 to ensure it gets on the agenda. 120087 2 mike 2015-05-05 17:42:43 +0000 The changes were accepted and have been applied. 120122 3 abel.braaksma 2015-05-06 01:21:14 +0000 Thanks, I'll close the bug.
