[oXygen-user] document nodes as external parameters

[Lee, David]

This has nothing to do with MarkLogic ... I'm running standalone xquery
(saxon).
Please add my vote to support values besides xs:string for parameters.
I use XQuery (saxon) embedded in Java programs and frequently need to
pass XdmValue's directly not as strings.
I guess this may be one reason I still use StylusStudio for most of my
debugging work ...

Hello,

Only string values can be passed as parameter in the current version. We

have on our to-do list an improvement to allow also other types of 
values. Please follow Florent's suggestion.
