Hi Folks,

I am using the path() function and it is generating paths like this:

/Q{}AeroPublication[1]/Q{}airports[1]/Q{}airport[1]/Q{}icaoCode[1]

Now I want to convert that full path into an abbreviated path, consisting of

airports/airport/icaoCode

I can write a bunch of XSLT code that does this conversion. But is there an

Assuming we process only the result of path() it should be possible with
tokenize and replace and string-join e.g.

string-join((('/Q{}AeroPublication[1]/Q{}airports[1]/Q{}airport[1]/Q{}icaoCod
e[1]'
=> tokenize('/')) ! replace(., '^Q\{[^{]*\}|\[[0-9]+\]$',
''))[position() gt last() - 3], '/')
