Oh thanks Michael. I was also thinking of same that such function must be
introduced in 2.0.
Apologies for creating confusion, Entity quest is off course defined in my
current DTD.
Thanks a lot again.
Best,

Use the XPath 2.0 ends-with() function.
PS: the string "[#x0003F]" might mean "question mark" to you, but that's a
private convention. It doesn't mean that to the rest of us, and it's likely
to confuse everybody if you assume that everyone understands the meaning of
your data.

Subject: [xsl] Check the last character (XSLT V 2.0)
Hi,
I've snippet of markup which looks like below, wherein I am trying
search that the string <articletitle> "ends" with question mark
[#x0003F].
XML Snippet
===========
<articletitle>A team production theory of corporate
law?</articletitle>
XSLT
=====
<xsl:when test="contains(string(), '[#x0003F]')">
<!-- Do something -->
</xsl:when>
The above code works perfect for the above snippet, but obviously
fails for the below one as it does "contains"
"?"/[#x0003F] but not "ends" with it. I was thinking using regular
expression to check the last character but thought, taking suggestions
to handle it in better way before getting my hands into it.
<articletitle>This is a sample? Hello world</articletitle>
Any guidance will be highly appreciated.
Best,
Pankaj Chaturvedi
