You can try the string-length() function in conjunction with conditionals... HTH, Ryan -----Original Message----- From: Varley, Roger [mailto:Roger.Varley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 10:11 AM To: Xsl-List (E-mail) Subject: [xsl] Formatting Text Output Hi I have a requirement that involves incoming customer Purchase Orders in xml format and I need to extract the relevant data and output that information in a text file. The item code, description and order quantity need to appear in columns aligned with the colomn headings. I've got it all working and I'm seperating the columns with <xsl:text>	....	</xsl:text> to obtain the required spacing. The problem that I've got is that the product description is variable length and therefore the number of 	 characters that need inserting to line up the following colomns depends upon the length of the description - and I can't find any sort of length() function. Any suggestions how I go about this?
