I have several templates with similar code to the following:

string-length(@Source) - 7) = 'MyString']]">
I want to substitute 'MyString' with a variable and the 7 with a
"string-length($var) -1"
however the processor complains about the usage of a variable. This is xsl 1
with msxsl.
Is there any way around this so I can avoid hardcoding the string?
If you can't or don't want to move to an XSLT 2.0 processor the only
option in XSLT 1 I see is matching only on
<xsl:template match="wix:Component[wix:File]">
<xsl:if test="wix:File[substring(@Source, string-length($var) - 1)
= $var2">...</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
Depending on other templates you have or need instead of the xsl:if you
might want to use an xsl:choose/xsl:when to deal with various conditions.
