XSL filter not working

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to filter files to only "jsp" files.

The lines that handle this is :

Code:

<!-- filter the task files to hide files that shouldn't be displayed -->
          <xsl:variable name="fileSet" select="$activeTask/Files/File[substring(Vpath,string-length(Vpath)-string-length('.dd') + 1,3) != '.dd']"/>
 
          <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="file-table">
            <xsl:apply-templates select="$fileSet[contains(fileSet,'.jsp')]">
              <xsl:sort select="Vpath"/>
            </xsl:apply-templates>
          </table>

I think it is within apply-templates but what I have tried so far doesn't work. I suspect the contains() is appropriate to get desired result.

Thanks for your help.

Tried below still not working with contains() and ends-width (may not work for me since i'm using xml version = 1, because I think this function uses version 2), anyone out there who can help me.

Code:

<!-- filter the task files to show 'jsp' files that should be displayed -->
          <xsl:variable name="fileSet" select="$activeTask/Files/File[substring(Vpath,string-length(Vpath)-4) = '.jpg']"/>

          <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="file-table">
            <xsl:apply-templates select="$fileSet">
              <xsl:sort select="Vpath"/>
            </xsl:apply-templates>
          </table>

XPath 2, not XML.

What are you using to apply the XSLT? I'm guessing Java?

Okay, so what library? Saxon? Xalan? WebSphere?
Alternatively, what classes from what namespaces are you using?

          <xsl:variable name="fileSet" select="$activeTask/Files/File[contains(Vpath,'.jsp')]"/>

          <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="file-table">
            <xsl:apply-templates select="$fileSet">
