> <xsl:function name="f:mismatch-position" as="xs:integer"> An alternative definition, that appears to give the same results is: <xsl:function name="f:mismatch2" as="xs:integer?"> <xsl:param name="a" as="xs:string" /> <xsl:param name="b" as="xs:string" /> <xsl:variable name="aa" select="translate($a,'.+*\{}[]','')"/> <xsl:variable name="bb" select="translate($b,'.+*\{}[]','')"/> <xsl:variable name="r" select="concat('^:',replace($bb,'.','($0'),replace($bb,'.',')?'),'.*')"/> <xsl:sequence select="1+string-length(replace(concat(':',$aa),$r,'$1'))"/> </xsl:function> If $b is long, this might stretch the capabilities of the regexp engine though....
