I would recommend against trying to do this with general application of a single regular expression. If you only want something that starts with 'my-' and you're confident no other path component has 'my-' in it, it'd be: tokenize($file,'/')[starts-with(.,'my-')] possibly tokenize($file,'/')[matches(.,'my-','i')] if you're not sure it's exactly 'my-'. Or, classically, tokenize($file,system-property('file.separator'))[last()] or if your processor gives you access to the file EXPath module ( http://expath.org/spec/file ) it's modernly file:name($file) Standard and library functions always have better test cases; use them if you can. -- Graydon Saunders | graydonish@xxxxxxxxx CC&s oferC)ode, C0isses swC! mC&g. -- Deor ("That passed, so may this.")
