Fw: [xsl] substring after/substring before

...
With XSLT 1.0, the solution will be a bit lengthier. for e.g., you can
used a named template to tokenize the string recursively, and get the
result.


It does not need to be lengthier if your XSLT 1.0 processor supports
regexp:replace() EXSLT function -- DataPower processor does.

And it should be more efficient than recursive stylesheet calls.


<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  xmlns:regexp="http://exslt.org/regular-expressions";

  <xsl:output method="xml" />

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:variable name="fname" select="regexp:replace
(.,' [^ ]*$','g','')" />
    <xsl:variable name="lname" select="substring-after(.,concat($fname,'
'))" />

    <xsl:value-of select="$fname" />#<xsl:value-of select="$lname" />
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

With XSLT 2.0 this can done as following:

<xsl:variable name="str" select="'A. B. C. Surname'" />
<xsl:variable name="tokenList" select="tokenize($str, '\s+')" />
<xsl:variable name="fname" select="string-join($tokenList[position()
&lt; last()], ' ')" />
<xsl:variable name="lname" select="$tokenList[last()]" />

<fnm><xsl:value-of select="$fname" /></fnm>
<snm><xsl:value-of select="$lname" /></snm>

With XSLT 1.0, the solution will be a bit lengthier. for e.g., you can
used a named template to tokenize the string recursively, and get the
result.

Hi List,

Can I spilit a string into two parts by last space as substring-before(.,


'[last()]) is not getting accurate result.


Input :

A. B. C. Surname


Output:

<fnm>A.</fnm>

<snm>B. C. Surname</snm>


Required output

Output:

<fnm>A. B. C.</fnm>

<snm>Surname</snm>


Anybody have any clue???


Thanks
