Subject: XSL function to handle String
> Hi Luca,
> last time you really helped me out from the following problem.Thanks for
> that.
> This time I want to use a function in XSL such that it takes two
parameters-
> string and length.
> such as
> showName(String name, int length)
> here I want to show name upto 5 character length, if name length is more
> than 5 character then show "....." after 5 character such as
> showName("Luca Morandini", 5)
> then it should show Luca....
> I want to handle it in XSL only but not in XSP. so please help me such
that
> I can use this type of function in XSL and pass name in run time.
> Can you send me an example for that?
> Thanks for that.
