separate string in XSL
I have a variable called 'lastName' which may or may not contain two words, such as "Smith Jr." How can I check for a case when it has two words using XSLT. I am not aware of any built-in, sophisticated string manipulation functions.

And if there are two words in the last name then I need to check the length of each word.

Thanks for all the help.

-Ben

Hi,

I am not experienced in string manipulation, but I think maybe a combination of the 'substring' and 'concat' functions would do the trick.
