[xquery-talk] recurrency

[Michalmas]

Of course, i meant recursion. Sorry :-)

The thing is that later in XML there can be referance to that fields:
<somewhere-it-is-used>
   <what-the-name--of-var-is>
        <ref>name1</ref>
        <ref>name3 'sdsdsd'</ref>
   <what-the-name--of-var-is>
<somewhere-it-is-used>

So, as you see, the full path doesn't need to go through all nodes. Also,
there can be part to cut as string, but just ignore that now (i forgot to
remove replace function from previous example).

And for that i need to replace several calls with longer parameter list with
one in recursive mode. My tries ended in failure as i couldn't store the
current state (script nature of XQuery).

Thanks,
Michal
