problems with trying to match string with single quote 1

[miraclemaker]

Hi guys. I'm havin serious problems trying to match and XML node using XSL based on he value of an attribute when the attribute value has a single quote in it. Here's an example:

XML:

<gameGroup priority="5" title="Kids' Favorites">

XSL:

<xsl:template match="gameGroup[@title='Kids' Favorites']">

- the single quote in the value of attribute 'title' is causing me real problems. I've read there's no way to escape a string in XPath, but this problem must have come up before. Does anyone have a solution?

Many thanks.

You could use:

<xsl:template match='gameGroup[@title="Kids&apos; Favorites"]'>
