Re: [xsl] Java to xslt conversion

[Michael Kay <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Something like this:

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="string-length(first) + string-length(last) &lt; 50">
<xsl:value-of select="concat(first, ' ', last)"/>
</
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:message>Name truncated!</xsl:message>
<xsl:value-of select="concat(substring(first, 1, 1), ' ', last)"/>
</
</
