Re: [xsl] XPath expression to convert a list of (string) integers into a sequence of (genuine) integers

[Dimitre Novatchev <dnovatchev@xxxxxxxxx>]

This can also be used with XPath 3.0:

  map(codepoints-to-string#1, map(xs:integer#1,tokenize(., '\s+')))

and produces:

"T h e   s e c r e t   a g e n t   i s   . . ."


Cheers,
Dimitre
