this is actually a serious point, and its a major pain, whats the implication of adding an uppercase/lowercase function to XSLT ? this is yet another example of stuff one doesnt want to do within XSL templates. maybe adding a 'case' attribute to xsl:text-----> ala <xsl:text case=""></xsl:text> since core XSLT deals with manipulating data, most of textual in content, i would expect this to be a native function, though i can hear our kind implementators moaning. chow, jim fuller ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Carlisle" <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> To: <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2001 9:42 AM Subject: Re: [xsl] Case conversion in XSL? > > <xsl:variable name="l" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/> > <xsl:variable name="u" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/> > > select="translate(.,$l,$u)" > > Unfortunately that's an English answer. > > If you are using a language other than english the lists get longer. > > If you are using german and want an ess-zed (ß) to uppercase to SS then even more > unfortunately you have to work a lot harder. > > David > > _____________________________________________________________________ > This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet > delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
