Sorry for this basic question...
I have a comma delimited list of tokens in a string that I want to get the
first three from (if there are more than three). Else just the first one or two.
I.e. Given this string:
"Dogs, Big Sheep, Little Mice, Ants, Pelicans"
I'd like the result to be:
"Dogs, Big Sheep, Little Mice ..."
Given:
"Dogs, Big Sheep, Little Mice"
It should just say:
"Dogs, Big Sheep, Little Mice"
Ditto for shorter ones.
Seems like there should be a function to split after the third occurrence of
",", but I don't find that anywhere.
Meanwhile, I'm looking at the EXSLT extensions to see if I can use a tokenizer
or something like that.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm using XalanJ 2.6.
Thanx,
Max
