Hi Charles, > I am transforming a bibliography into HTML using MLA, Chicago, etc. > formats, where I want to have a period after the author, book title, > etc. Sometimes my data comes with the period already attached, and > sometimes not, so I need a way of using xsl:if to test if the last > character is a period or not. Use the substring() function to get the last character of a string. The following tests whether the last character of the string value of the current node is a period: substring(., string-length(.)) = '.'
