Re: [xsl] test on string-length of text() for element with node

I also thought so, but I don't know why its not working.

If 'textstring' is placed direct after the starttag <maritalstatus>,
followed by the child elements it works.

But in this case it doesn't work

Hello,

Probably it's not difficult, but I'm struggling with the following
issue (maybe it's because it's Friday afternoon)

From an xml node set, I need to select the string-length of an
elements content without its child elements.

xml node set

<maritalstatus>
       <cs:info xmlns:cs="http://cs.nl/cs"; id="6">
               <codeList>maritalstatus</codeList>
               <instruction id="7">no instruction</instruction>
               <length>1</length>
               <minOccurs>0</minOccurs>
               <pattern>\d*</pattern>
       </cs:info>
       <cs:update xmlns:cs="http://cs.nl/cs";>
               <additionalInfo>test</additionalInfo>
               <oldData>2</oldData>
               <newData>5</newData>
       </cs:update>textstring
</maritalstatus>

From the element <maritalstatus> the string-length of only
'textstring' must be selected. How do I escape the child elements in
the xsl:value-of select.
I'm using XSLT 1.0 with xsltproc.

Its just:

maritalstatus/text()
