Regarding Ken's solutions from last Wednesday (repeated below), why is it :

<xsl:analyze-string select="$thisAlarm/@equipment"
regex="^{$thisGroupedAlarm/@equipment}$">
<xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:for-each select="regex-group(1)[normalize-space(.)]">
<xsl:attribute name="found-key" select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>

rather than

<xsl:analyze-string select="$thisAlarm/@equipment"
regex="^{$thisGroupedAlarm/@equipment}$">
<xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:attribute name="found-key" select="regex-group(1)"/>
</xsl:matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>

?

What does the [normalize-space(.)] predicate do for us ?


Uncertainly,
Richard.

PS.
By the way, this does seem to give the right results.
I'm only now getting back to looking at it and working out how it works,
having had a few days off over the (UK) Bank Holiday weekend.
