Q. How do you trim in XSLT?
The FXSL’s trim function/template achieves this by using another template/function of FXSL for reversing a string….So, the processing goes like this:
- Eliminate leading white-space.
- Reverse the result.
- Eliminate leading whitespace.
- Finally reverse.
Q. How do you cut trailing spaces in XSLT?
To clean up the whitespace, we can use the normalize-space() function….The normalize-space() function

- It removes all leading spaces.
- It removes all trailing spaces.
- It replaces any group of consecutive whitespace characters with a single space.
Q. How do I concatenate in XSLT?
The Concat function takes two input strings as a source and concatenates them defined in XPATH. Below we shall see the arguments it returns and it is very easy to accomplish with XSLT. concat(‘x’) – Gives out error as it got one single string value. Concat(‘x’,’ y’) – This returns xy.
Q. Why is XSLT so rarely used on the Web?
XSLT grew out of publishing where you could have a one-way process from one structured source format to multiple publishing format like print, PDF and static web pages. Most web sites does not fit this use case.
Q. What is XSL Strip space?
Used at the top level of the stylesheet to define elements in the source document for which whitespace nodes are insignificant and should be removed from the tree before processing. Available in XSLT 1.0 and later versions.
Q. How to trim a string using XSL 1.0?
Since XSL 1.0 dows not have inbuild Trimming functions for Strings, you need to define your own templates. You can use the Trim Templates shown in the codesnippet below. ‘” />
Q. What is the function translate in XSLT for?
translate () is a versatile string function that is often used to compensate for missing string-processing capabilities in XSLT. Here you use the fact that translate () will not copy characters in the input string that are in the from string but do not have a corresponding character in the to string.
Q. What is the early response function in XSLT?
Early response is appriciated. normalize-space (string) strips leading and trailing whitespace, in addition to replacing any whitespace sequence (including line breaks) with a single space. In complex maps is usual to have scripting functoid with custom inline XSLT, and sometimes is useful to call custom .Net components directly from XSLT.
