Hi folks, I'm pretty new to XSL, at least to using it seriously for
projects, and I've hit a snag that I can't seem to figure out. It's
probably pretty simple, but I'm not 100% clear on how escaping works in
XSL.
Basically we've got some decimal unicode Japanese characters in our XML
file, e.g. え. I need to test for these inside of an element so I
can add a CLASS attribute to the DIV that will contain them. I'm
confident there are no other unicode elements in the document, and so I
tried to do something as simple as this:
<xsl:variable name="jpstr">
<xsl:text>&#</xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
<div>
<xsl:if test="contains(wording,$jpstr)">
<xsl:attribute name="class">
<xsl:text>fs front jpns</xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
...etc
If I change $jpstr's value to normal letters it works just fine, but
for some reason I can't get it to detect either &# or &#. Any
help is greatly appreciated.
