Subject: Re: [xsl] XPath to test that a middle name consists of a letter followed by a period and nothing else ? From: "Tommie Usdin btusdin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2016 18:05:57 -0000 |
Perhaps. But this didnbt look like questioning the requirement, it looked like denouncing it. There is a difference between bhere is how to do what you asked for, are you sure that is what you want your code to do because b&b and byour requirement is evilb. It seems to me that bare you sure that is what you want your code to dob is reasonable, responsible, and helpful. I think name calling in response to a business requirement is unhelpful. b Tommie ====================================================================== B.
