Hi,

I might sound stupid here but are you trying to output
foobarxxx -> foobarxxx from the string foo\bar"xxx -> foo\\bar\"xxx ?

If yes then simply use the following :-

<xsl:value-of select="translate($var,'&quot;\','')" />

Cheers.

Arun

Ah, of course, I hadn't thought of trying recursion.  I got an evil hack
working just now, using select="//*" and substring($var,position(),1) --
really nasty :-)

Thanks very much for the reference.

Regards,

Steven

Recursion.

FAQ has an entry about this
<http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/StringReplace.html#d9175e82>.
