Re: [xsl] escaping ampersands in replace function

2007-09-04 09:52:11


replace($l_TempString,'&','and')
get an error message stating the & must be followed by an entity
reference

yes, that's not a well formed XML fragment.


replace($l_TempString,'&','and') and 
replace($l_TempString,'&','and')
the amp is not replaced.

so presumably $l_TempString does not contain a substring that matches
either "&" or "&".

so what is $l_TempString  ? ie what does <xsl:value-of
select="$l_TempString"/> produce.

It's always helpful to post a complete xml input and complet xslt
stylesheet (in this case, each only need be two or three lines long,
