Subject: [xsl] Re: The top 10 limitations of XSLT 1.0 From: Joerg Pietschmann <joerg.pietschmann@xxxxxx> Date: Thu, 01 Mar 2001 13:14:59 +0100 |
A few that had not been mentioned so far: - Tokenisation. Use cases: Parsing dates, ENTITIES attributes, comma separated lists etc. I think of an tokenise() function which results in a set of text nodes. Something along the lines of <xsl:value-of select="(tokenise(date,' ')[1]"/> or <xsl:for-each select="tokenise(formats,' ')">... - More powerful search&replace facilities (not necessarily full regexp powered). Use case: Escaping quotes in strings to be used as JavaScript literals. Regards J.Pietschmann -- XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
