With bzv.xq: <abstract><![CDATA[Kijkers van het populaire programma <i>Boer zoekt vrouw</i>]]></abstract> as query, I get result MapiClient -lx bzv.xq <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <XQueryResult><abstract>Kijkers van het populaire programma <i>Boer zoekt vrouw</i></abstract></XQueryResult> How do I get the <i> instead of <i>? (I know how to do this with fn:replace, but guess there must be an output directive?)
