Jupp, thanks! What would be an appropriate XSLT forum?
Any recommendations? Jeremy Quinn wrote:

Hello group,
Function: string substring-before ( string, string ) Returns the string part preceding the first occurence of the second passed string inside the first passed string. The return value of substring-before('2000/3/22', '/') would be '2000'.
My question:
can that first string be a param?
If by this you mean 'can that first string be set by an XSLT param' ?
The answer is yes. (Be pretty useless if you could'nt ;)
eg.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:param name="date"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:if test="substring-before($date, '/') = '2000'">
<p>Yes, Ladies & Gentlemen, it is indeed the year 2000</p>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Ideally this kind of question ought to be asked on an appropriate XSLT forum.
But I hope it helped.
regards Jeremy
