Michael,
That's because.... ' is replaced by the single-quote-character BEFORE
the xpath is evaluated???
Assuming you did not want to make the cheesey quot and apos variables, is
there some syntax to do the translate?
??? <xsl:value-of select="translate(@defaultValue,'"',\"'\")"
/> ???
??? <xsl:value-of select="translate(@defaultValue,'"','\'')" />
???
??? <xsl:value-of
select="translate(@defaultValue,'"','&apos;')" /> ???
Shouldn't there be??

Subject: [xsl] Invalid XPath Converting " to '
Hello xsl-list,
This is an attribute of an element:
defaultValue=""password""
i.e. "password" I am trying to convert it to 'password'
In an xslt stylesheet as part of a choose I am using:
<xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of
select="translate(@defaultValue,'"','Z')" /></xsl:otherwise>
This works and changes " to Z
but I want ' single quote
when I use : "translate(@defaultValue,'"',''')"
I get Invalid XPath expression
How do you do this conversion?
