  <xsl:template match="creation_date">
    <cr_date day="{format-number(substring-before(., '/'), '00')}"
             month="{format-number(substring-before(substring-after(., '/'), 
'/'), '00')}"
             year="{substring-before(substring-after(substring-after(., '/'), 
'/'), ' ')}"/>
  </xsl:template>
