Am I missing something in the question? I can't see the difficulty. For
example,
contains(pubDate, ':')

Subject: [xsl] Is there any way to identify the date format ?
Hello,
I am a newbie to XSL . I have 2 XML feeds which have a
pubdate tag having different date formats . One uses the
standard RFC 822 format and the other non RFC 822 format.
1 st feed
-----------------
<pubDate>Mon, 07 Jan 2008 15:24:04 -0600</pubDate> (RFC 822)
2 nd feed
--------------------
<pubDate>March 7, 2007</pubDate>
I
want to convert both these date formats to ISO 8601
format.The point is i want to do this in a single XSL file .
I know there are substring() and concat() functions which can
help me achieve this. Now my question is, how can I identify
which format the date is ( 1st format or 2 nd ) in the first
place ? If i can identify which format the date is in, I can
covert them to ISO 8601 format.
Thanks in
advance,
Jayashree Venkatesh
