Cas,

At 11:36 AM 3/18/2005, you wrote:

<xsl:for-each select="translate(@software,';',', ')">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>

You want

<xsl:value-of select="translate(@software,';',', ')"/>

The translate() function operates on strings and returns a string. Since for-each iterates over a set of nodes, it requires a node-set to be returned by the expression in its @select: hence the error when you give it a string.

Cheers,
Wendell
