my XML file contains single strings with upper and lower letters and I
need to split them into several words, always just before the first
upper letter starts.

Example:
<SomeTag>thisTextNeedToBeSplit</SomeTag>

My output should look like:

this Text Need To Be Split

Is there any possibility to do this with XSL methods?

If it really is that simple then a single replace() would do it (in the running example below).


I hope this helps.
