Re: [xsl] analyze-string and child nodes

[Terry Ofner <tdofner@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you David. The template works perfectly. I only needed to add one ] near
the end of the match line. The take-away message for me: when one wants to
apply-templates with regular expressions, use replace() instead of
analyze-string. Is that an accurate summary of the approach?
