Hi there, what's the quickest way to replace all special characters in a string in
XSL-T 2.0? Explanation: I have filename encoding problems on Windows 2000. So I want to
replace ä -> ae, ö -> oe, ü -> ue and ß -> ss. The filenames
are generated at run time depending on the contents of some input file, so I don't know
in advance if the resulting file name contains special characters or how many of them.
Thanks a lot in advance. If this is not the right place for my question, please, point
me to a more suitable list or forum. Best regards Alex

I've replied on a separate thread, but for future reference, requests for XSLT
coding help that aren't specifically related to Saxon would be better asked on the
xsl-list at www.mulberrytech.com Michael Kay
