That it can't be done using a regular expression is one thing, that it can't be done with XSL-T 2.0 is incorrect, given that all one would need to check the validity of regular expressions is a turing complete language. In fact, have a general purpose LR(1) parser written cmpletely in XSLT 2.0, which will parse any input and return the sequence of poduction used in the parse. Provide any LR-1 grammar written in BNF and you'll get the checker. -- Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev --------------------------------------- Truly great madness cannot be achieved without significant intelligence. --------------------------------------- To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk ------------------------------------- You've achieved success in your field when you don't know whether what you're doing is work or play On 4/16/07, bryan rasmussen <rasmussen.bryan@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > It would make far more sense for you to test your regular expressions by > some other means before putting them into your XSL.
