RE: [xsl] Using Regular Expressions with XSL

["David Nelson" <David.Nelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

this is way off topic but here's the javascript for replace...
     var test = "hey'";
     var exp = new RegExp("'","g");	
         test = test.replace(exp,"!");

Try http://exslt.org/regexp/index.html

The replace function implemented in JavaScript is not robust.  You can't use 
an RE that contains a single-quote.  (At least I haven't figured out how to 
do it.)  Maybe I'll get around to finding an answer, post it, and become 
famous.
