Blooming FLWOR: An Introduction to the XQuery FLWOR Expression

An Introduction to XML Schema-Aware XSLT and XQuery Processing

You wouldn't use XML without a Schema, so why are engineers so reckless when it comes to their XSLT and XQuery? In this tutorial, Dr. Michael Kay shows how to write Schema-Aware XSLT stylesheets and XQuery, and explains the benefits of doing so.
