XSL substitution

[StopBsod]

Hi Group,

I'm a newbie in XML and my problem/question should be quite simple to
solve....

1) an XML file with content like

<location>fil e://path/to/something1</location>
<location>fil e://path/to/something2</location>
<location>fil e://path/to/something3</location>

2) an XSL file to produce an .html page.


My problem : I need to substitute "file:/" with "http://web_site.com"

For now on, I use a dirty trick : changing the XML file with "sed"....

I'd like to make this substitution in my .XSL file...

Thanks in advance for your ideas.

M.

XPath has some functions for string processing e.g.
concat('http://www.example.com/', substring-after(location, 'file://'))
