HI i have a problem of case conversion

xml file looks like this

<colors>

 <color>red</color>
 <color>blue</color>
 <color>orange</color>
 <color>black</color>
 <color>white</color>

</colors>

i need to apply transformation and produce the result

Colors:

RED BLUE ORANGE BLACK WHITE

notice that the case is changed in the result.. it is uppercase. the xsl should convert to uppercase , no matter what it gets as input..

i can try translate() function , but it requires to know what i want to translate and what i want to translate it to.In my case since i dont know what would be the text in the color ellement, I reckon translate() wouldnt be of much help .

Can any one suggest me how i can go ahead with this??

Use translate :) It's not a string/string mapping, it's a charlist/charlist mapping.

Ie. translate("my string","ms","MS") gives My String
So just enter the entire alphabet and it will do the trick.
