hmm... how about such as below?
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" language="VBScript">
<xsl:script>
<![CDATA[
Function TrimString(sArg,iNum)
If Len(sArg) > iNum Then
TrimString = Left(sArg,iNum) & "..."
Else
TrimString = sArg
End If
End Function
]]>
</xsl:script>
<xsl:template match="foo">
<xsl:eval>TrimString(me.nodeTypedValue, 25)</xsl:eval>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
