:-) You have asked how to aggregate string -- I've answered you how
to do it by one statement without needs to write any of PL/pgSQL code.
So the string aggregation problem is solved. ;-)
This list is not correct place to discuss XML. My only argument is a
common sense. You don't make difference between the data and attributes.
The data of <pref_money> is obviously money amount and the date is
obviously its attribute:
<user id="id">
<pref_money date="2010-..">money_value</pref_money>
...
</user>
PS. If you don't want to follow this way you can "reduce" the size of XML
transfer by placing all the data in one tag:
<user id="id" prefmoneydate="2010-.." prefmoneyvalue="..."/>
...
:-)
