What is the quickest way to test if the first char in a string is a letter
(case does not really matter)?
That depends what you mean by letter (unicode has a lot of letters) and
whether you want xslt 1 or 2 (xslt 2 has a lot more string handling
capability)
in xpath 2 matches(.,^[a-z]','i') might be your friend or replace [a-z]
by some bigger class such as \p{L} (all letters)
