    String Join in umbraco xslt

    is there any way of joining strings together in umbraco xslt? I tried this which i found in a google search but umbraco didnt seem to like it. 

    <xsl:variable name="newItem" select="string-join( ('a', 'b', 'c'), '')" />

    im trying to do the following:

    <xsl:variable name="test" select="1,2,3" />

    i want to be able to add another number to the end so its like 

    <xsl:variable name="test" select="1,2,3,4" />

    how can i do this?

    Hey Phil,

    You can use concat

    <xsl:value-of select="concat('a', 'b', 'c')"/>

    Hi Phil,

    In "pure" XSLT there isn't a string.Join equivalent.  As Rich says, if you're dealing with strings, then concat is the way to go.

    We do have an XSLT extension in uComponent 2.1 (beta) called "Concat" - this can take a nodeset and then join it together using a separator string/character.

    e.g.

    <xsl:value-of select="ucomponents.strings:Concat($currentPage/values/value, ',')" />

    Cheers, Lee.
