Hi France,
Is it possible to view content saved as XHTML in a BaseX database as HTML 5 in a browser when accessing the content through a domain:port/rest/... address?
Try this:
http://your.url:port/rest/db/doc.xml?method=xhtml&html-version=5.0
Some more information on providing serialization parameters to REST requests can be found here [1, 2].
Hope this helps, Christian
