RE: Removing leading zeros from String like 000747-918

Of course, it's easier in XSLT 2.0:

<xsl:value-of select="replace(., '^0*', '')"/>

# Thanks for the suggestion. I was able to solve the problem by 
# creating a new template and calling from a variable like
# 
# <xsl:variable name="a">
#         <xsl:call-template name="removeLeadingZeros">
#             <xsl:with-param name="phone">
#                 <xsl:value-of select="EVENT/ContactPhone"/>
#             </xsl:with-param>
#         </xsl:call-template>
#     </xsl:variable>
# 
# <xsl:template name="removeLeadingZeros">
#         <xsl:param name="phone"/>
#         <xsl:message>
#             <xsl:value-of select="$phone"/>
#         </xsl:message>
#         <xsl:choose>
#             <xsl:when test="starts-with($phone,'0')">
#                 <xsl:call-template name="removeLeadingZeros">
#                     <xsl:with-param name="phone">
#                         <xsl:value-of 
# select="substring-after($phone,'0' )"/>
#                     </xsl:with-param>
#                 </xsl:call-template>
#             </xsl:when>
#             <xsl:otherwise>
#                 <xsl:value-of select="$phone"/>
#             </xsl:otherwise>
#         </xsl:choose>
#     </xsl:template>
# 
# Thanks for spending time...
# 
# Thanks

# Here is the clue I got earlier this week
# 
# Have a look at format-number(), you will need something like:
# 
# <xsl:value-of select="format-number(.,0)"/>

# Hi,
# 
# I am trying to remove leading zeros from a String like 
# "000747-918-1212"
# .  Please let me know if there is any function available in 
# XSL to do this.
# 
# Thanks for your time
