Hi Dave, Try this using xsl:value-of to bring the strings together as one and
use them in xsl:analyse-srting to create a group for each item you want.

Hi Dave —
It looks like the list is being helpful to you. There is something you could do
in the future to be helpful to the list: focus your subject lines on the topic
of the question. In this case, "strip directory info from variable" would have
been a far better subject line than "another beginner question - strip
directory info from variable”. This is because many people refer to the list
archives and third-party list archives by scanning subject lines to find
discussions that may help them. By making the subject line about you and not
about your topic you make reuse of the discussion much more difficult.
It seems to me that many people may have your question and this discussion
would be helpful to them, too.
Thanks for making a moment to think about subject lines before your future
posts to XSL-list.

Hi again everyone - back with another beginner question.
I'm working in Oxygen and am using Saxon.
I'm searching through a bunch of xml files in search of jpg names. I'm
creating variables as follows:
<xsl:variable name="allxml"
select="collection('..//xml/?select=*.xml;recurse=yes')"/>
<xsl:variable name="jpgs" select="$allxml//element/@n"/>
$jpgs looks like:
dir1/jpg001.jpg dir1/jpg002.jpg dir1/jpg003.jpg
etc.
I want to strip away the dir info, but am having a hard time. I've tried
using tokenize and substring-after but both return similar errors.
"A sequence of more than one item is not allowed as the first argument of
fn:tokenize() ("dir1/jpg001.jpg", "dir1/jpg002.jpg")."
Because I don't know what I'm doing, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. :)
Can anyone help me figure out how to solve this problem?
thanks!
dave
