both single and double quotes in an XPATH translate()

2005-06-28 12:07:17
Hello all,

I am trying to do a big translate on a string with
special characters like so...

<xsl:value-of select="string( translate(./name, &apos;
'!(_at_)#$%^*(),:;.?/\[]{}|=+-_*&quot;&amp;&gt;&lt;&apos; ,
'________________________________') )" />

But I want to translate both single and double qoutes
in there,
Since the string is delimiting by &apos, I thought I
could use single qoute' in there, but I get an
error...

(Xalan, hav not tested in Saxon yet cause Xalan is the
trouble maker usually for my code)
javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: Prefix must
resolve to a namespace:


I found this useful archived page for what I wanted to
do.
http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/200107/msg00181.html
but David leaves me hanging with the cliffhanger:
"It gets more interesting when you need both " and '
in the [Xpath] string." :)

Thanks,
Arian
