name
name($arg as node()?) xs:string?
Returns the name of $arg as an xs:string that is either the zero-length string, or has the lexical form of an xs:QName.
If the argument is omitted, it defaults to the context item (.). The behavior of the function if the argument is omitted is exactly the same as if the context item had been passed as the argument.
The following errors may be raised: if the context item is undefined [err:XPDY0002]XP; if the context item is not a node [err:XPTY0004]XP.
If the argument is supplied and is the empty sequence, the function returns the zero-length string.
If the target node has no name (that is, if it is a document node, a comment, a text node, or a namespace binding having no name), the function returns the zero-length string.
Otherwise, the value returned is fn:string(fn:node-name($arg)).
