RE: string processing

Hi,

I'm trying to work out how to tokenizer two separate strings 
and then compare their tokens using xslt.  Does anyone have a 
solution to this problem?  It seems reasonably straight 
forward in java but not so with xslt.

XSLT Standard Library <http://xsltsl.sourceforge.net/> has a tokenized 
template, Dimitre too probably has what you need <http://fxsl.sourceforge.net/>.

Also it seems strange that the name() function only returns 
the first node in the node set.  If I am selecting a 
particular named group of elements within an xml document 
that contain different elements and I don't know what this 
elements are in advance is there any way of returning all 
their names as a string?

e.g.

<xsl:variable name="names">
  <xsl:for-each select="*">
    <xsl:if test=""> </xsl:if>
    <xsl:value-of select="name()" />
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>

Would give you a space separated list of child names.

Cheers,
