Hi,

I have a variable $imageAbsolute which is a URL, this URL has some white space inside it eg;

http://www.images.com/images/extraSize1/438 02238 57 front 1.jpg

I wish to replace the whitespace with %20, everything I try doesnt work or just puts in % char. Is there anyway of doing this.

translate($imageAbsolute, " ", "%20")

I am currently using the above. Any help would be brilliant.
Thanks
James

translate() only maps from a list of characters to a list of
corresponding characters. It does not to search-and-replace.

If you are using XSLT 2.0, you can use the replace() function.

If not, there are recursive templates that will do search-and-
replace for you.

Type 'xslt search and replace' into Google and the first hit
will take you to your answer.

I used the translate previously on the stylesheet and it worked perfect, thats why I tried using it again.

I will give these a go but I have tried one before and it never displays anything after the %, and I need to replace a single whitespace with %20.

Thanks
