RE: Expression in XPath

Cheers,
Wendell

In XPath 1.0 there is no way of constructing a sequence of strings (there's
no such type in the data model), and there is no way of constructing new
nodes, so I'm afraid this is impossible.

In 2.0 it's straightforward:

for $x in (your current expression)
return substring-after($x, '(mm)')
