Shortening a file name in a Magento output file

First of all, please accept my apologies if I say stupid things in my post! I really don't understand this programming language and have only got so far through trial and error!

I am trying to output a Magento order in to a file, ready for upload to our POS.

Here is my template so far:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<files>
<file filename="%lastincrementid%.txt">
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:php="http://php.net/xsl">
<xsl:output method="text"/>

<xsl:variable name="sepstart" select="'&#34;'"/> <!-- &#34; field start seperator, including '' -->
<xsl:variable name="sepend" select="'&#34;,'"/> <!-- field end seperator, including '' -->

<xsl:template match="/">

<xsl:for-each select="orders/order">
<xsl:for-each select="items/item">
<xsl:value-of select="$sepstart" /><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(sku)"/><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />
<xsl:value-of select="$sepstart" /><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(qty)"/><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />
<xsl:value-of select="$sepstart" /><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(price)"/><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />
<xsl:value-of select="$sepstart" /><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(row_total)"/><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />
<xsl:value-of select="$sepstart" /><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(../../increment_id)"/><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />

<xsl:text>&#xD;&#xA;</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
</file>
</files>

The format of %lastincrementid% is a 9 digit number such as 100007654.

The filename is currently set to be this 9 digit number BUT I want it to be only the last 4 digits, ie 7654.

Can anyone please be kind enough to show me how I go about it? I would be eternally grateful........ :-)

Try using substring()...

<xsl:value-of select="substring(normalize-space(../../increment_id),6,4)"/>

Edit (complete guess at what is trying to be accomplished)

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:php="http://php.net/xsl">
  <xsl:output method="text"/>

  <xsl:variable name="sepstart" select="'&#34;'"/>
  <!-- &#34; field start seperator, including '' -->
  <xsl:variable name="sepend" select="'&#34;,'"/>
  <!-- field end seperator, including '' -->

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:variable name="id">%lastincrementid%</xsl:variable>
    <files>
      <file filename="{substring($id,6,4)}.txt">

        <xsl:for-each select="orders/order">
          <xsl:for-each select="items/item">
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepstart"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(sku)"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepend"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepstart"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(qty)"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepend"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepstart"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(price)"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepend"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepstart"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(row_total)"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepend"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepstart"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(../../increment_id)"/>
            <xsl:value-of select="$sepend"/>

            <xsl:text>&#xD;&#xA;</xsl:text>
          </xsl:for-each>
        </xsl:for-each>
      </file>
    </files>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
