Hi Erol, Yes, you can. Something like the following should work:
element book {
  for $i in 1 to $n
  return attribute {"isbn_" || $i} {get-value($i)}
}
Cheers, Dirk

I would like to create an xml element that will have dynamic number of
attributes, something like this where n will change and $value_1 to
$value_2 will be provided by outside

element book {
 attribute isbn_1 {$value_1}
attribute isbn_2 {$value_2}
attribute isbn_3 {$value_3}
.
.
.
attribute isbn_n {$value_n}
}
Can we do it? Thanks
EA

Hello Erol, Some time ago we had a short discussion on the ML about using clob with Oracle: https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/pipermail/basex-talk/2014-March/006481.html Blob is even a standard java.sql type and should work fine. If not, don't hesitate to report a bug here. Cheers, Dirk PS: Next time you might want to start a new conversion with a different title... makes stuff easier to find in the future for other people, which might run into the same problem.

Thanks Marco, I have another question. I am trying to use Basex's SQL functions. I have tried some basic SQL commands for connecting and selecting some rows from table, it works fine. For my project, I need to upload and export pdf document/word doc/images form/into Oracle database that needs some special oracle-specific stuff. Has anybody tried to upload blob/digital document to Oracle with Basex? I appreciate any help Erol Akarsu On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 2:07 PM, Marco Lettere <marco.lettere at dedalus.eu>wrote:
