Ken and Mukul,
Thank you for your responses. Yes I am not a version 2 fanatic (yet) so
this will work just fine for me.
Thanks again,
Jim

Subject: [xsl] Xslt 2 stripping out non-numbers
Greetings,
I need to strip out non-numerical values from a string.
Here is a sample input value: TUV0062
And what I want is : 0062 (or just 62)
...
What is the correct way to do this using XSLT 2?
Would an XSLT 1 compatible method be acceptable?
I hope the below helps.
. . . . . . . Ken
t:\ftemp>type neff.xsl
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="target" select="'TUV0062'"/>
<xsl:value-of select="number(
translate($target,
translate($target,'0123456789',''),''))"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
t:\ftemp>saxon neff.xsl neff.xsl
62
t:\ftemp>
