OK, got it. I now know why ":" matches [\\u0600-\\u06FF]. It is because the colon is char 58 (x3A), between zero which is char 48 (x30) and the backward slash which is char 92 (x5C). > You don't need the u-notation to enter code points into regexp (and > they don't work) Sorry to insist : why don't they work ? Aren't they supposed to do ? If so, is it a Saxon-related problem or a more general one that would indicate that UTS #18 is still to be implemented, is irrelevant or whatever ? How, for example, to use a useful syntax like matches(.,'\p{Script:Arabic}+') ? > as you can just enter the characters directly Mmmh... not always easy because of control characters. For arabic, see http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0600/index.htm. > or if > you want an ascii representation use xml character references, > & # x a b c ; Indeed. <xsl:when test="matches(.,'[؀-ۿ]+')">arabic</xsl:when> gives me the expected result. Thanks for the reminder ! Cheers, p.b.
