Dear all at BaseX,
how can one specify xml-stylesheet (for example in XQuery 3 prolog) ? I would like to add something like <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="linktomystylesheet.xsl"?> between the xml declaration and the generated xml.
I did not find any xml-stylesheet option for serialization.
BaseX is just wonderful.
best regards,

as BaseX doesn't have to understand what xml-stylesheet does, it treats it like any other processing instruction [1]. To add one to your output document, just insert it as the first node:

' }, > $generated-xml > }
This produces:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="linktomystylesheet.xsl"?> > <foo> > <bar/> > </foo>
Note that 
 is the entity for the ASCII newline character, I inserted it only for readability.
