Hi everyone!

Given the following XML node

<Field value="1956-01-12 (53 y)" name="age" />

or

<Field value="2008-07-14 (1 y)" name="age" />

Is there an XSL function that will extract only with is in between the
brackets?

The user just wants to see 53 y, not the birth date.

  <xsl:template match="Field">
    <xsl:value-of
select="substring-before(substring-after(@value, '('), ')')"/>
  </xsl:template>
