Hi,

I thought the XML Schema regex limitations were not applicable to XSL-T regex's.

The XSLT regex is very much based on the XML Schema one. Quote from XSLT spec: "The regular expression syntax used by these functions is defined in terms of the regular expression syntax specified in XML Schema".

The XSLT spec defines a few extensions (like $ and ^ , reluctant quantifiers, grouping, replacements) and clears a few dark corners of the XML Schema regex spec (the latter I find notoriously hard to read, btw).
