[xsl] Substring a Value

I am stuck on a line of code, which creates a link based on a value the xsl retrieves from the xml file (@from). I need to be able to substring the @from value (ie. ID(ODP_12345) to ODP_12345) for the link to point to the correct file.


The line to be modified:


<xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:value-of select="@from"/></xsl:attribute>


where, <xsl:value-of select="@from"/> (the value returned) needs to be substringed(2, len(@from)-1).



I have tried several JavaScripts, but I can't seem to get anything to work.



The anchor syntax is:


<a>
<xsl:attribute name="href"><xsl:value-of select="@from"/></xsl:attribute>
                       <i>
                                   <xsl:apply-templates/>
                       </i>
</a>



Version:

o;?<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl";>


Thanks, Trevor
