Re: [xsl] Data type conversion in xslt 2

["Dimitre Novatchev dnovatchev@xxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe you could use a standard XSD type such as xs:base64Binary
(http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#base64Binary)
or xs:hexBinary (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#hexBinary)
