Hi, I noticed that exslt:regexp was not supported by libexslt, so I wrote three extension functions that use Python's re module (which is not really JavaScript compatible as requested by the spec, but who cares...). Here's an example: ----------------------------------------
xslt = etree.XSLT(etree.XML("""\ <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:regexp="http://exslt.org/regular-expressions" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="*"> <test><xsl:copy-of select="*[regexp:test(string(.), '8.')]"/></test> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> """))
result = xslt(etree.XML('<a><b>123</b><b>098</b><b>987</b></a>')) print str(result) <test><b>987</b></test>
Since the test cases worked out perfectly, it's already in the trunk. So, when the regular exslt support gets merged, lxml will have more complete exslt support than libxslt itself. :) Stefan
