Re: [xsl] regex help, please

["Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex" <gerrit.imsieke@xxxxxxxxx>]

Is this the XSLT that you actually used? Are you mixing up select with 
regex?
 <xsl:analyze-string select="doctext" regex="[|]">
(not sure whether you'll have to use square brackets around '|' when not 
grouping; it won't hurt though)
Is there a doctext element below /?

Please please supply minimal input data as well as the expected output. 
This will facilitate diagnosis in most cases.
