Hi Yago.
You have two problems:
1. translate() function replaces one character with another character.
You can replace one character with white space, but you can't remove a
character.
2. To remove character use one of "replace-string" templates offered by list
members at:
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/sect21.html look at "Replace" link. I can't
get it.
To send a parameter that contains a special character look at:
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N7150.html#d7104e577
A Michael Kay article.
And another tip. Use FAQ and archives. Similar problems where discussed
yesterday.
Ceers.

Hi list!
I wanted to remove all the apostrophes ' from a string.
My first idea was using the translate function... i.e.
<xsl:value-of select='translate(@mystring,''','')'/>
Unfortunately this didn't work, I get the error.
ERROR: Required white space was missing.
So I thought that maybe using different quotes I would be
able to achieve
the result I was after, so I tried:
<xsl:value-of select='translate(@mystring,"'","")'/> and I
got the same
error as before.
<xsl:value-of select="translate(@mystring,''','')"/> ERROR:
Description:
Expected token ')' found 'STRING'.
At this point I thought...well, let's try using the unicode
number rather
than the symbol...
so I tried
<xsl:value-of select="translate(@mystring,''','')"/> ERROR:
Description: Expected token ')' found 'STRING'.
I tried a few more variations with the same frustraiting result...
At this point I had to accept the fact that ... this is
*probably* not the
way to achive what I want...
so after a quick search in the faq and the archives I decided
to ask to the
list and see if anyone has
faced a similar situation in the past...
This MUST be possible...the case is HOW?
Regards,
Yago Alvarado
