contains(A, B) is true if A contains B, not if B contains A.

> Hello,

> I'm working with this XML (simplified):
> 
> <keyrec>
> 	<keyword>APT1</keyword>
> 	<desc>Appt: Setup:</desc>
> 	<keywd_type>X B</keywd_type>
> </keyrec>
> <keyrec>
> 	<keyword>APT2</keyword>
> 	<desc>Appt: Confirm</desc>
> 	<keywd_type>B</keywd_type>
> </keyrec>
> 
> 
> <keywd_type> may contain the letters B, R, X, any combination of the
> three (separated by spaces), or nothing at all.
> 
> My (working) XSL contains the following:
> 
>     <xsl:for-each select="//keywordtable/keyrec[keywd_type='B']">
> 
> Now I need to alter it so it's looking for records that *contain* B
> rather than equaling B. So I tried this:
> 
>     <xsl:for-each select="//keywordtable/keyrec[contains('B',
> keywd_type)]">
> 
> But this brings up records that contain *only B* or *nothing at all*.
