Re: [xsl] substring function

["Agnes Kielen" <a.kielen@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Michael,
I don't get it. When I try your first test:

> <xsl:if test="string(WorkPhoneNumber)">
> <xsl:value-of select="concat('(',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,1,3),')
>
',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,4,3),'-',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,7,4),substrin
> g-after(WorkPhoneNumber, 'x'))"/>
> </xsl:if>

I get this: (123)456-7890333
You don't get an 'x' because you ask for the characters after the 'x'. So I
changed it into:
<xsl:if test="string(WorkPhoneNumber)">
<xsl:value-of

select="concat('(',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,1,3),')',substring(WorkPhoneNum
ber,4,3),'-',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,7,4),'x',substring-after(WorkPhoneNum
ber, 'x'))"/>
</xsl:if>

and got with this input:
<WorkPhoneNumber>1234567890x333</WorkPhoneNumber>
the following result:
(123)456-7890x333

I didn't check your second try. Hopes this helps, but not sure.

Agnes
