Convert date from yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yy using xsl

HI all, I got a JavaScript function to convert the date, but I was wondering if there is any way to convert the date with xsl without using JavaScript.

Thanks.

Found a very good post on date formatting here.

No Javascript required. Only XSL elements and XPath String functions can do the job.

You can use the Microsoft formatter.

Or the format-date function, if you are using XSLT 2.0 (which .Net does not).

Thanks to all of you for answering my question, after looking on those links you left me to take a look I came out with something very simple.

<xsl:for-each select="//MaternityDiaryEvent/DateOfVisit">
<xsl:value-of select="concat(substring(.,9,2),'/',substring(.,6,2),'/',substring(.,3,2))"/>
</xsl:for-each>

Thanks again to all, I'll give you a vote to each of you.

Cesar.
