RE: string-length(whatever) equivalent required

["Medina, Edward" <emedina@xxxxxxx>]

How about using the instant Saxon tool to convert to 
html.  That way you can use the string-lenght function and
view it where ever you want.  I don't know much about the
IE5 parser so I could not help you there if that is what 
you want to use.

Subject: string-length(whatever) equivalent required


Hello All.

I need to perform various tests on strings in my XSLT to decide on further
processing.  The string-length function is the one I need the most, but is
not supported in IE5 (which I must use) and the technology previews are no
use.  Is there a way in the IE5 parser to perform an equivalent function and
any other string functions come to that.

Or is my best bet to create some Javasript functions?

Thanks for any Help.
