…you’re right, now I got it. I’ve added an issue to track this down [1].
Thanks, Christian

Hi Christian,
Thanks! I’m using version 9.5. (I upgraded in case that solved things.)
To be clear, you’re comparing the stored documents "/test-ns/snippet.xml" and "/test-ns/workaround.xml", right? The results from update:output() should be fine.

Hi Ash,
Thanks for the reproducible example code.
On my system, the root elements of both $snippet and $workaround have the 'https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%...' namespace (and deep-equal($snippet, $workaround) yields true). Are you working with the latest version of BaseX?
Cheers, Christian

Hi!
I’m pulling JSON from an API, converting the string to the XML representation, and storing part of the resulting XML into BaseX. The problem is, I can’t get the xmlns namespace declaration to stick to the XML excerpt once it’s saved to BaseX. It seems to work when I display the unstored excerpt.
Here’s a short XQuery that illustrates my problem. Am I missing something? Is this a bug?
xquery version "3.1";
(: NAMESPACES :) declare default element namespace "https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%..."; declare namespace db="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbasex.org%2..."; declare namespace output="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%..."; declare namespace update="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbasex.org%2..."; (: OPTIONS :) declare option db:chop 'false'; declare option db:stripns 'false'; declare option output:indent 'yes'; declare option output:method 'xml';
