Hi,
Are xpointer implemented in BaseX 8?
I tried to add an xpointer attribute in an xinclude element but it failed.
[a] <xi:include href="plop.xml"/>
[b] <xi:include href="plop.xml" xpointer="myId"/>[a] works fine but [b] fails (Fallback is called).
Thanks for help,
Jérôme.

Hi Jérôme,
We currently rely on default Java XInclude support [1]. I assume that it does not properly handle XPointer attributes?
Cheers,
Christian

Hi,
thank you for your answer. It was helpfull.
Java XInclude support seems to not fully handle XPointer attributes. One solution consists in using the "element" scheme with the "descendant path" notation:
<xi:include href="plop.xml" xpointer="element(/1/3)"/>Unfortunatly, the "id" notation fails...
<xi:include href="plop.xml" xpointer="element(myId)"/>Regards,
Jérôme.

Are you validating against a DTD? If not, the "ID-ness" property won't be set...
It might work if the document uses xml:id without DTD validation.

Hi Liam,
No, there is not validation against a DTD but I am using the xml:id attribute in my target document...
I tried several syntaxes - according the w3c specifications - but without any success.
Could you give me an example?
Thanks.
Regards,
Jérôme
