RE: case-sensitivity in xml

2005-01-21 16:09:47
I am aware that XML is a case-sensitive language but is there 
a way to 
override its case-sensitivity when processing an xml document 
using XSLT?

XSLT 2.0 allows you to do comparisons using a collation of your choice, and
implementations are likely to offer collations that are case-blind.

Also, is there a way to extract certain bits from the inner 
text of an 
xml document using XSLT such that {abc, xyz} can become abc,xyz ?

XSLT 2.0 gives you full regular expression capability. 1.0 has a more
limited range of functions, but with the aid of recursive templates you can
usually achieve what you want. But you need to do some reading, because it's
not especially easy.
