Marco,

Thanks very much for the reply!

That works well with the example I posted.  Unfortunately, as I should
have said in my post, the actual tag is more complex - it has the question
mark character which seems to break the parser:

$ cat x.xql
let
        $newline := "
",
        $header1 := <?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl'href='GetFort
une.xsl'?>

return
        <html>
        {$header1} {$newline}
        </html>
$ java -cp
/usr/share/kaffe/servlet.jar:/home/esafern/work/kawa/kawa/kawa-1.6.99.jar
kawa.repl --xquery ./x.xql
./x.xql:4:16: invalid character '?'
./x.xql:4:16: missing NameSpec
./x.xql:4:30: missing 'return' clause
./x.xql:4:30: missing ')' - saw xml-stylesheet @:29
./x.xql:4:50: missing ')' - saw href @:49
./x.xql:4:51: missing PrimaryExpr
./x.xql:4:68: invalid character '?'
./x.xql:4:68: missing ')' - saw  @:67
./x.xql:4:69: missing PrimaryExpr
./x.xql:8:3: missing PrimaryExpr
./x.xql:8:3: missing ')' - saw  @:2
./x.xql:8:12: missing ')' - saw  @:11
./x.xql:8:14: missing PrimaryExpr
./x.xql:8:14: missing ')' - saw  @:13
./x.xql:8:23: missing ')' - saw  @:22
./x.xql:9:8: saw end tag '</html>' not in an element constructor
./x.xql:10:1: missing PrimaryExpr

try without quoting the tag; please note that what you are trying to do
is equivalent to this simpler constant xquery expression:

<html>
 <xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='GetFortune.xsl'/>
</html>

or
 let
$a := <xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl'href='GetFortune.xsl'/>
 return
<html>
{$a}
</html>
