So, if today is 12/9/05 then I don't want to show any articles older than 12/4/05. Can this be done with XSLT?
The date comes in like this:
Wed, 07 Dec 2005 01:42:52 -0700

Curtis,
XSLT 1.0 doesn't have any specific knowledge about dates or time; the EXSLT library provides some functionality that may be enough for what you are looking for: http://www.exslt.org/date/index.html
A third alternative is to use Java extension functions to manipulate dates; a simple example is available in "IntDate.xsl" (javaExtension) in the Stylus Studio examples.
