Re: [xsl] substring after/substring before

[Mukul Gandhi <gandhi.mukul@xxxxxxxxx>]

With XSLT 2.0 this can done as following:

<xsl:variable name="str" select="'A. B. C. Surname'" />
<xsl:variable name="tokenList" select="tokenize($str, '\s+')" />
<xsl:variable name="fname" select="string-join($tokenList[position()
&lt; last()], ' ')" />
<xsl:variable name="lname" select="$tokenList[last()]" />

<fnm><xsl:value-of select="$fname" /></fnm>
<snm><xsl:value-of select="$lname" /></snm>

With XSLT 1.0, the solution will be a bit lengthier. for e.g., you can
used a named template to tokenize the string recursively, and get the
result.
