|-
| '''Summary'''
|By default, resources specified via [[Databases#XML Documents{{Code|fn:doc]] }} and [[Databases#XML Documents{{Code|fn:collection]] }} are looked up both in the database and in the file system. If you always use {{Function|Database|db:preget}} to access databases, it is recommendable to disable this option:
* No locks will be created for the two functions (see [[Transaction Management#Limitations|limitations of database locking]] for more details).
* Access to local and external resources will be faster, as the database lookup will be skipped.
|-
| '''Summary'''
|If this option is turned on, paths specified in the [[Databases#XML Documents{{Code|fn:doc]] }} and [[Databases#XML Documents{{Code|fn:collection]] }} functions will first be resolved against a database that has been opened in the global context outside the query (e.g. by the {{Command|OPEN}} command). If the path does not match any existing resources, it will be resolved as described in the article on [[Databases#Access Resources|accessing database resources]].

| '''Summary'''
|By activating this option, database instances will be created with the XQuery functions [[Databases#XML Documents{{Code|fn:doc]] }} and [[Databases#XML Documents{{Code|fn:collection]]}}.

* <code>encoding=US-ASCII,omit-xml-declaration=no</code> : sets the encoding to {{Code|US-ASCII}} and prints the XML declaration.
