How can I trim a string returned from a node in XLST?

Hi

I need to take the name of an attribute and just display its first letter. In C# I would use substring - how can I do it with Umbraco?

thanks

substring! Try

<xsl:value-of select="substring($string,1,1)" />

More examples here -> http://www.w3schools.com/Xpath/xpath_functions.asp
