Re: transform a string

As been said in an other message just a few posts ago, translate is a character by character replacement. The third argument is empty, so all characters that occur in $baseDir are removed effectively.

Look at the following site for string replace solutions:

hello,

within a xsl template I need to transform a physical path like
file:///D:/usr/jan/My Documents/Visual Studio
Projects/Web/Data/XmlContent/Development/TaskSheet.xml
to /Development/Tasksheet.aspx

I tried
<xsl:param name="baseDir" select="'file:///D:/usr/jan/My
Documents/Visual Studio Projects/Web/Data/XmlContent/'"/>

        <xsl:template match="site:document">
                <site:document>
                        <site:xml-file>
                                <xsl:value-of select="site:xml-file"/>
                        </site:xml-file>
                        <site:link>
                                <xsl:value-of select="translate(string(site:xml-file), 
$baseDir, '')"/>
                        </site:link>
                </site:document>
        </xsl:template>

but keep getting strange, scrambled results...

thanks for the help
