Re: Expression to say "case insensitive"

xslt case insensitive test
   How do I express the following expression in xslt:

   if the case-insensitive value of $name == the case-insensitive value of
   "Joe"

test="translate($name,'JOE','joe')='joe'"


Or more generally, if you are speaking English, you can use

<xsl:variable name="up" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/>
<xsl:variable name="lo" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/>


test="translate($name,$up,$lo)='joe'"

For other languages you might have to decide what case-insensitive
means, which isn't always easy:-)
