Did you already try db:output()?

Sorry, I don't understand how db:output() can be used to print out the modified nodes. I can use it to print some message but if I print out the nodes, it prints out the un-modified nodes. Basically I'm creating a processing pipeline, so the output of this insertion will be processed further by another piece of code. But I can't seem to capture the result of the insertion into a variable so that I can process it further. Maybe there is another way to do such type of processing. Maybe I should just do this type of work in XSLT. Any guidance will be appreciated.

Here is what I actually want to do. Maybe someone can suggest a straightforward way.
File : sample1.xml
<P>
 <M id="1"/>
 <M id="2"/>
 <M id="3"/>
</P>
File: result1.xml
<Q>
 <R id="1"/>
 <R id="2"/>
</Q>
Desired output :
<P>
 <M id="1">

    <R id="1"/>
  </M>

<M id="2">
    <R id="2"/>
  </M>
 <M id="3"/>
</P>
So insert the node from 2nd file into 1st where the ids match.

Are you mostly interested in a) updating your data, and returning the modified node(s) as query result, or b) finding the correct updating query to modify your data?
