Given an XML document like this:
<foo>
<bar name="Jim's Code">abc</bar>
</foo>
How do I get a desired output XML document like this:
<jimscode>abc</jims_code>
Specifically, I'm looking for how to drop apostrophes. I have figured out
how to translate (and drop) characters in general using code like this:
<xsl:variable name="upperCaseChars" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/>
<xsl:variable name="lowerCaseChars" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/>
<xsl:variable name="uCaseCharsPlus" select="concat($upperCaseChars, '
/-(),+')"/>
<xsl:variable name="lCaseCharsPlus" select="concat($lowerCaseChars, '')"/>
<xsl:variable name="element_name" select="translate(@name,
$uCaseCharsPlus, $lCaseCharsPlus)"/>
<xsl:element name="{$element_name}">
...
</xsl:element>
But I can't get it to work with apostrophes. I have tried escaping it
using ', ', and ', but no luck.
BTW, I'm using LotusXSL on NT.
