[xsl] Is this possible in XML/XSL?

[Jason Trépanier <jtrepanier@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is it possible to trim the length of a string in XSL ?

for example,

if I grab the title from an xml file

<xsl:value-of select="title" />

and the title is  "Mother Nature Fan Club: Environmental Directory for 
Education"

how would I trim the string so that the result would be "Mother Nature Fan 
Club ..." ??

dont know if this is possible in XML/XSL, would be great if someone could 
point me in the right direction!

thank you,
J
