> In my project I am dealing with at least 10 delimeters ? If you don't need to do different things for different delimiters, then: The XPath2 tokenize function allows the delimiter to be specified by a regular expression, so in that case you can just specify whatever you want, eg ^[a-zA-Z]+ for any run of non (ascii) letters being a delimiter. If using xslt1 substring function it's easier to normalise first: <xsl:variable name="x" select="normalize-space(translate(Value,',;.[]',' '))"/> would give a value of $x as "Alpha Beta Gamma Alpha Beta" given your posted input, which you then pass to an XSLT1 tokenizing template.
