Re: Need to remove unusual character in source

I've come across a character in the source that I need to remove.

I'm using Saxon 8, XSLT 2

the character is and its a control character

0x18 CAN

<xsl:function name="try-loading-file">
   <xsl:param name="filename" />
   <xsl:value-of select="document($filename)" />
</xsl:function>

|<xsl:template match="/">
  <root>
   <xsl:copy-of
       select="saxon:try(yourns:try-loading-file('your filename here'),
       saxon:function('yourns:catch-loading-error',1))"/>
   </root>
</xsl:template>|

||| <xsl:param name="error-info"/>
   <xsl:sequence select="$error-info"/>
   <!-- DO SOMETHING WITH THE ERROR, LIKE
       CALLING YOUR OWN EXTENSION FUNCTION
       which may take the document, filter it and
       let the application do a retry -->
||</xsl:function>|
