->I would like to be able to display just a portion of a string. For
->example, the <date> element that I get back from the database is both
->date and time. I only want to display the first 10 digits of 
->the <date>
->element. I don't see an XSLT command for this. Any suggestions?

Hi,

you'll need the substring() function. have a look at the XPath String
Functions (http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath) for the docu.
