Buddhi,
No (you are correct), translate() won't work for this purpose.
If using XSLT 2.0, you want the replace() function.
If using XSLT 1.0, this is considerably more difficult, but not
impossible. Consult the FAQ at http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/replace.html.
Cheers,
Wendell

Hi all,
I have a string element in a xml file, it can consist a word. After
parsing I am taking letter by letter with some formatting stuff.
Ex.
My original String:
<Value>H A N</Value>
After Parsing : (I have trimmed output for more clearance)
<Body>
<FontFace value="STDFONT.FNT"><FontSize
value="0.2">H</FontSize></FontFace>
<FontFace value="STDFONT.FNT"><FontSize
value="0.2"></FontSize></FontFace>
<FontFace value="STDFONT.FNT"><FontSize
value="0.2">A</FontSize></FontFace>
<FontFace value="STDFONT.FNT"><FontSize
value="0.2"></FontSize></FontFace>
<FontFace value="STDFONT.FNT"><FontSize
value="0.2">N</FontSize></FontFace>
</Body>
As you see I have spaces on my original string.
I want to translate spaces into '_x0020_' rather than empty space. I
tried using "translate()" but it will put one character because I have
single space.
translate(substring($text,$i,1), ' ', '_x0020_')
The out put I want to get is...
....
<FontFace value="STDFONT.FNT"><FontSize
value="0.2">_x0020_</FontSize></FontFace>
....
Please help me....
