In XSLT 1.0, and by default in XSLT 2.0, strings are compared
case-sensitively. Your string does not contain the substring "hip", so it
returns 0.

Subject: [xsl] String-length of substring-before is giving me
wrong number
Hi all,
I have got a string:
"Yoshimi Battles the Hip-Hop Robots"
The $keyword = hip
I count the substring before the $keyword like this:
string-length(substring-before($string, $keyword))
When I count the length before the keyword, it returning to
me 0, which is wrong.
I do not understand why it is returning me 0...
Thanks,
jz
