SQL Call
SELECT * FROM XMLParser(
ON xml_input1
USING
TextColumn('xmldocument')
Nodes('price/member')
Sibling('author','year','title')
SiblingDelimiter(';')
Accumulate('xid')
) AS dt ;
Output
The parent node, price, has two child nodes, member and public. However, the Nodes syntax element specifies only member; therefore, only its value is output. Title, author, and year are siblings of price. The first document has multiple author and year siblings, so the values of those siblings are separated by the specified delimiter, semicolon (;).
