RE: substring function

Hi Michael
I've tested your exemples and they worked as was suposed to. Maby if you
show us the xml and the xsl we might help you.
As Agnes point out, the first exemple show this result: (123)456-7890333
because you concat the string after the 'x', but in the result you show, it
ignore the string after the 'x'. maby your template isn't working on that
particular node and that result cames from another that doesn't have an
extension (an 'x333').

		Hi Michael,
		I don't get it. When I try your first test:

		> <xsl:if test="string(WorkPhoneNumber)">
		> <xsl:value-of
select="concat('(',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,1,3),')
		>

',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,4,3),'-',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,7,4),substrin
		> g-after(WorkPhoneNumber, 'x'))"/>
		> </xsl:if>

		I get this: (123)456-7890333
		You don't get an 'x' because you ask for the characters
after the 'x'. So I
		changed it into:
		<xsl:if test="string(WorkPhoneNumber)">
		<xsl:value-of


select="concat('(',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,1,3),')',substring(WorkPhoneNum

ber,4,3),'-',substring(WorkPhoneNumber,7,4),'x',substring-after(WorkPhoneNum
		ber, 'x'))"/>
		</xsl:if>

		and got with this input:
		<WorkPhoneNumber>1234567890x333</WorkPhoneNumber>
		the following result:
		(123)456-7890x333

		I didn't check your second try. Hopes this helps, but not
sure.

		Agnes
