add HTML tags via XSLT
I'm trying to use XSLT to format XML to HTML.
The thing is I need to format certain nodes by adding HTML tags to the node text
For example, I need to replace one or more strings of "B, " with "<sup>B</sup>, ".
and when it is outputed to HTML I need the tags to read as tags and put the superscript around the "B"
<stuff>item3B, item2, item1B, item4</stuff>
need to be in html
item3<sup>B</sup>, item2, item1<sup>B</sup>, item4
How to do so would be great!
thanks

In XSLT 2.0:
<xsl:analyze-string select="stuff" regex="B">
<xsl:matching-substring>
<sup><xsl:value-of select="."/></sup>
</xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:non-matching-substring>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
In 1.0 it's considerably harder; you need to use recursive templates to process the string using substring-before, contains, and substring-after. There are examples in my book.

I tried that but I got an "Error during XSLT transformation: XSLT transformation failed." error
I'm opening the xml file on FireFox 2.0.0.9
Ideas?
my test files
XML
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="XSL_Test.xsl"?>
<NewDataSet>
<statblock>
<stuff>item3B, item2, item1B, item4</stuff>
</statblock>
</NewDataSet>
XSL
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0" >
<xsl:output method="html" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<h5>
<xsl:analyze-string select="stuff" regex="B">
<xsl:matching-substring>
<sup><xsl:value-of select="."/></sup>
</xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:non-matching-substring>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
</h5>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

That's because Firefox doesn't support XSLT 2.0, only 1.0.
