Hi!

I have a <note></note> node in XML file and in this node there is a text which a user of a webpage enters through a multiline memo field. I use xslt to transform xml to a common txt file. When i use value-of for <note> it writes a whole text including returns (=linebreaks). How do i make it to ignore/skip returns?

Thanks alot!

Best regards.

This is a recipe using a node from an xml document called text to replace a string within it.

<xsl:choose>

  <xsl:when test="contains(text, 'xyz')">

    <xsl:element name="text">
      <xsl:value-of select="substring-before(text, 'xyz')"/>
      abc
      <xsl:value-of select="substring-after(text, 'xyz')"/>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>

...is it possible to detect linebreak insted of 'xyz' like this?

Try the tokenize() function.(I did not test)

fn:tokenize(string,pattern) Example: tokenize("XPath is fun", "\s+")
Result: ("XPath", "is", "fun")
