The nearest thing I can think of is (XSLT 2.0 only) to call the normalize-unicode function specifying NFKD as the normalization form.

You will then have a string where the base characters and the accents are adjacent characters.

You could then write an xsl:function to drop non-ASCII characters (perhaps - I don't know exactly what you are wanting to do).

Is there a way in xslt for me to get the base character of a character with diacritic? Like D to a? I was thinking of using the translate function, but it there are too many characters to include.
