Hi all,

I'm wondering if someone could guide me in a problem I've come across in 
XSL.  I have a field of type date but the actual data it contains is a 
combination of date+time (e.g. 24//05/2002 22:55:10).  What I want to do is 
to take this format and display only the date part (i.e. strip out the 
time).  Is there a way to do this using just XSL?  I know that the date 
part is always in the format of ##/##/## so I'm figuring that doing a 
pattern match would be the way to go but if there's an element that will do 
this automatically that would be great.

If someone could be so kind as to give me a pointer or two and/or to direct 
me to a website that might provide the info I'm looking for I would be most 
grateful.

Cheers,

Rob.
