Hello Goetz and Micheal,
That ok we can use translate function to change the value of a variable but
my exact problem is more complex. The contents of variable which I want to
capitalize are not know in advance (They are know only at runtime).
Precisely, suppose the xml is
<component ..>
<xsl:variable name="foo">
<!-- do dome processing to get the value of variable-->
</xsl:variable>
<!-- At this point I want to have the capitalize value of the contents of
foo variable (may be in same variable or in some other variable. -->
</component>
Since at the time of transforming the contents of variable I don't know the
exact contents hence I unable to figure out how to use translate function.
