Re: [xsl] tokenize a string with escaped spaces

["Mark Giffin m1879@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found that this works for my purposes:

<xsl:analyze-string select="$outputclass" regex="\S+'[^']*'">
     <xsl:matching-substring>
         <xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="."/></xsl:message>
     </xsl:matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>

Then if $attr is this:

ng-show-myModel=='Radio button 1' ng-show-myModel=='Radio button 2'

I get this back:

ng-show-myModel=='Radio button 1'
ng-show-myModel=='Radio button 2'
