XQuery for the Non-Expert – Resources

By StrateSQL, 2010/11/24

Talk to the Experts

Learning XQuery can be a pain.  There are a lot of different uses for XML and different languages implement it in many different fashions.  To help clear the air a bit, I wrote a series on XQuery; which this post is a part of.

Now that I’ve posted my initial posts on what I’ve learned about XQuery, I thought I would write a follow-up posts with some links to resource that I’ve found valuable.
