Hi there,
I want to do some simple manipulation of some data in an XML file, however
because I don't have a lot of XSLT experience I not sure if I can use it to
achieve what I want. I can easily achieve what I want with perl, but I'm
trying to avoid that.
Here is what a bit of data looks like in the XML file:
<draw date="2001-9-26" value="3-14-15-17-19-47-(5)" prizes="0,0,0,0,0" />
In the transformed document I want to change the presentation of the 'date'
and the 'value' to be something like this:
<date>Wednesday, 26 September 2001</date>
<numbers>03 14 15 17 19 47<numbers/>
<bonus>05</bonus>
Thanks in advance to any kind person who responds.
Regards,
