In 2.0 you can use regular expressions. Here I think you just want
count(*[starts-with(name(),'WAAUX')]) -
count(*[starts-with(name(),'WAAUXCallerID')])

Subject: [xsl] Wildcard problem
Hello,
<xsl:value-of select="count(*[starts-with(name(),'WAAUX')])"/>
I would like to count each element that starts with a 'WAAUX' then any
two digit numbers and rest doesn't matter.
e.g.
WAAUX02xxx -> should be counted
WAAUXCallerID -> should NOT be counted
WAAUX04xxx -> should be counted
I guess I need to use concat('WAAUX', ... ) within the count above.
But can I use a star as wild card in this case?
Any idea?
Many thanks
Houman
