The fn:local-name function
returns the local name property of a node.
Syntax
>>-fn:local-name(-+------+-)-----------------------------------><
'-node-'
- node
- The node for which the local name is to be retrieved. If node is
not specified, fn:local-name is evaluated for the current context
node.
Returned value
The returned value depends
on whether
node is specified, and the value of
node:
- If node is not specified, the local name of the context
node is returned.
- If node meets any of the following conditions, a string
of length 0 is returned:
- node is the empty sequence.
- node is not an element node, an attribute node, or a processing-instruction
node.
- If node meets any of the following conditions, an error
is returned:
- node is undefined.
- node is not a node.
- Otherwise, an xs:string value is returned that contains the local
name part of the expanded name for node.
Example
The following function returns the
local name for node emp.
declare namespace a="http://posample.org";
fn:local-name(<a:b/>)
The returned value is b.
