Hi Allan, Following is a another solution to the problem. It uses recursion.. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="text" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/name"> <xsl:call-template name="process-string"> <xsl:with-param name="string-subset" select="."/> <xsl:with-param name="n" select="10"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="process-string"> <xsl:param name="string-subset"/> <xsl:param name="n"/> <xsl:value-of select="substring($string-subset, 1, $n)"/> <xsl:text> </xsl:text> <xsl:variable name="strlen" select="string-length(substring($string-subset, $n + 1, string-length($string-subset)))"/> <xsl:if test="$strlen > 9"> <xsl:call-template name="process-string"> <xsl:with-param name="string-subset" select="substring($string-subset, $n + 1, string-length($string-subset))"/> <xsl:with-param name="n" select="10"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if> <xsl:if test="not($strlen > 9)"> <xsl:value-of select="substring($string-subset, $n + 1, string-length($string-subset))" /> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Regards, Mukul --- allan.mccluskey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Hi, > > Is it possible to insert a space in a string (of > unknown length) after a > specified number of characters e.g. after every 10 > characters insert a > space?? > > I have an XML element called <name> which can be > anywhere between 1 and 50 > characters long.
