Getting Double Quotes in a string [message #30381]

Hi,

Just wondering if there is a quick way to get double quotes into a setVar

eg. Using the Java escape char would be :-
<c:setVariable var="namesToEnter"
select="/"{$tempCompoundNode/@leftOperand}/""/>

I got around this by creating a Jet custom function called
surroundWithDoubleQuotes.

But just wondering if there is an easy way :-)

Stu:

I know of no simpler way than the XPath function approach. Part of the
problem is that XPath 1.0 doesn't have a quote escaping mechanism. The other
part of the problem is that the JET tag parser doesn't have a working quote
escaping mechanism either.

I should probably implement both.
