RE: Xslt 2 stripping out non-numbers

Charles, 

The characters to be removed could be anything, upper, lower, hyphens,
spaces ... Anything NaN.

Thanks for the help thus far.

Will the characters to be removed always be upper-case letters?

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)

Here's what I've tried so far:

for $i in tokenize(state_license_number, '\.') return xs:string( if
(string(number(.)) = 'NaN') then '' else $i)

But this does not work.  I get an empty string as a result

If I do this:

for $i in tokenize(state_license_number, '\.') return xs:string($i)

I get the whole string back so I know my "for" statement is returning
something.

What is the correct way to do this using XSLT 2?

Thanks,
Jim
