Re: [xsl] Find the string and apply the tag

["Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex" <gerrit.imsieke@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Selva,

xsl:analyze-string should do the trick.

flags="s" is for multiline input (treat newline as ordinary character).

The rules where to add boldface, i.e., the regex, might get somewhat complex when you try to capture all real-life cases. The 'x' flag will help you writing a more readable regex then. See http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#flags

Things will get complicated though if some markup inside <derivation> has to survive. There's no analyze-string that will reproduce elements in the matched substring.

 <xsl:template match="/">
   <root>
     <xsl:apply-templates select="derivations/derivation" mode="boldify"/>
   </root>
 </xsl:template>

 <xsl:template match="derivation" mode="boldify">
   <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:analyze-string select="." 
       regex="(
                replaces?
                | was[ ]created[ ]in.+
              )" 
       flags="sx">
       <xsl:matching-substring>
         <b>
           <xsl:value-of select="."/>
         </b>
       </xsl:matching-substring>
       <xsl:non-matching-substring>
         <xsl:value-of select="."/>
       </xsl:non-matching-substring>
     </xsl:analyze-string>
   </xsl:copy>
 </xsl:template>
