[xsl] EXSLT for MSXML4 (Was: Re: [xsl] Substrings)

[Dimitre Novatchev <dnovatchev@xxxxxxxxx>]

There is an implementation of EXSLT for MSXML4, which consists of the
common:node-set() function and all functions from the "set" module:

     common:node-set()
     set:intersection()
     set:difference()
     set:distinct()
     set:leading()
     set:trailing()
     set:has-same-node()

It can be downloaded at:

   http://www.sourceforge.net/projects.fxsl


For more information see:

Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev
