Hi All, 

 

I have lines in my input that I want to add <break> elements to in my
output. For example, this might be the input:

 

<xsl:param name="line" select="'Takeoff from Unlisted and Alternate
Airports'"/>

 

and I want to replace a space with a <break> so that each line doesn't
exceed, for example, 35 characters

 

<line>Takeoff from Unlisted and Alternate<break/>Airports</line>

 

I am thinking the I can tokenize the line and then recursively build the
string back up from the beginning, checking its length. Any other
suggestions on a general-purpose algorithm that I can use in XSLT 3 would be
appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 

Rick
