URL is not Universal Resource Locator but Uniform Resource Locator. URI is Uniform Resource Identifier. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Identifier I find it a tad unfortunate that the first example of ENCODEURL() uses a valid URI to encode it, i.e. =ENCODEURL("https://www.libreoffice.org/";) that produces "https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Elibreoffice%2Eorg%2F". ENCODEURL() is more used on path components or query parameter arguments that are appended to the path. Also, using the libreoffice.org site should be avoided for examples as when loaded a) it generates quite some traffic b) the result is overly complex Rather use https://example.org/ instead that's made and reserved for, well, examples, and delivers a short page if someone tries out. Using actual queries for FILTERXML() is of course fine to demonstrate functionality, with examples that keep the result not overly complex. For ENCODEURL() "Additional details" "URL is constructed from a limited set of characters" ... maybe also link to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3986 the "Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax", and "A few special characters" should be replaced by "A few reserved characters" linking to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3986/#section-2.2 (Reserved Characters) > https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Calc_Functions/FILTERXML > https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Calc_Functions/WEBSERVICE The WEBSERVICE() example for "Accessing non-XML data" probably should also be changed to https://example.org/ to not deliver the "exceptionally long, multi-line string" ... In "Accessing XML data" the example lacks the protocol scheme and // before host component, i.e. https:// > On a specific point, do we need to declare the versions of XML and XPath > that are relevant for FILTERXML? If so, can somebody confirm what they are? I don't think the versions are somewhere nailed. Eike -- GPG key 0x6A6CD5B765632D3A - 2265 D7F3 A7B0 95CC 3918 630B 6A6C D5B7 6563 2D3A
