Should-Be-In-The-FAQ material here...
How do you put ' or " into a string?
<xsl:variable name="apos">'</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="quot">"</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="foo" select="concat($quot,'Hello, world!',$quot)"/>
How do you test for the presence of ' or " in a string?
<!-- same $apos and $quot assignments, then... -->
<xsl:if test="contains($foo,$apos) or contains($foo,$quot)">
...
</xsl:if>
Are these the only or preferred methods?
- Mike
