Subject:  [xsl] Formatting a value-of-select attribute

Greetings All,

I'm working on a FO right now and have a situation where the authors
have entered a triple digit and I need to display only a single digit.

Here is the tag entered in XML.

            <issno issno="000" inwork="02" type="status"/>

Here's what my output states.
<xsl:value-of select="idstatus/dmaddres/issno/@issno"/>

This gives me "000" as it should, but is there a way to force it to only
give me the third digit?

Thanks, Max
