EXSLT

EXSLT is an extension kit for XSL. A collection of templates that can be used within an XSL transformation to perform mathematic operation, string manipulations or working with reg-exp.
Quite a powerful toolkit for any skilled XSL coder.
The templates just get included into the XSL, their namespaces get declared and then the functions and templates are available for use like normal XSL functions.
EXSLT also contains a couple of functions that emulate XSL functions only availble for newer parsers, such as string-tokenize.
More information and package downloads available at exslt.org.
