correction: the regex should be something like: [^0-9].

Subject: RE: [xsl] Xslt 2 stripping out non-numbers
I use the java hook to call the replaceAll method on the String object.
Then I pass in reg ex to remove unwanted text:
declare namespace:
xmlns:java="java:java.lang.String"
then use replaceAll method:
<xsl:variable name="clean" select="java:replaceAll(string($input),
'[0-9]', '')" />
There may be an easier (non java function) way but this works in Saxon
and Xalan. Note the namespaces may differ.

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
