Re: [xsl] regex help, please

Is this the XSLT that you actually used? Are you mixing up select with regex?
 <xsl:analyze-string select="doctext" regex="[|]">
(not sure whether you'll have to use square brackets around '|' when not grouping; it won't hurt though)
Is there a doctext element below /?

Please please supply minimal input data as well as the expected output. This will facilitate diagnosis in most cases.

I've got a pipe delimited list of data which I'd like to turn into an Xml doc

So, I use code something like

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; 
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"; xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions";>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:analyze-string regex="doctext" select='|'>
<xsl:matching-substring></xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:non-matching-substring><item><xsl:value-of 
select="."/></item></xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
<xsl:copy>
        <xsl:value-of select="$doctext/node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Which doesn't work - it doesn't recognize the pipe as a regex.
What should that regex be?
I've also tried /| and [|].
