[xslt1.0] Count the number of character

[Le Basque]

Hi,
I would like to count the number of # in a string
example :

Code: Select all

<xx>1#2#3#4#</xx>

number of # = 4

exists a function to count character in string ?

Thank you

i found a solution

Code: Select all

<xsl:variable name="nb_char" select="string-length(xx)-string-length(translate(xx,'#',''))"/>
