Re: [xsl] string search

With the given (sketchy) specification it would be difficult with
*any* technology. How is the end of the "name of the subject" defined?
How many roles are there? Is it guaranteed that no role name occurs in
the "Text text text" preceding the actual role? Is matching to be done
heeding case? Etc., etc.

Hello,

I have come across an issue related to string search which seems to be much 
advanced then just testing its occurence or positon.

My XML source has a node, which contains list of organizations and their 
roles. First comes the role, second the name of the subject. The subject and 
its role may be surounded by other text. What I need to do is to extract the 
name of the subject which comes after the name of the role.

Source text:
Text text text. Approves: Ministry of whatever. Text Text.

Desired result:
Ministry of whatever

Of course there can be punctuation characters around the name of the subject, 
spaces etc.

Do you think it is feasable even to try do something like this or just leave 
it off and try to solve this situation with different technology? (I am 
inclined to the second option, but would like to hear you opinion).

Best regards,

Pavel Škopík
