Creation of text nodes from a string with regular expressions - function analyze-string()

The element xsl:analyze-stringCreates a sequence of text nodes from an input string. The parts of text to be selected are given by a regular expression in regex attribute.

The element xsl:matching-substring generates a text node from every string matched by the regex. Look at xsl:non-matching-substring for using regex as a separator.
