XSL remove comma from output, but losing part of the text

I'm trying to remove any commas that a user inputs, which I've accomplished using a post I found here on Experts Exchange.

<xsl:value-of select="translate(../../shipping/street1,',','')" /><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />

Open in new window

From what I had previously

<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(../../shipping/street1)"/><xsl:value-of select="$sepend" />

Open in new window

It's working well, except for one thing. It is now removing all text prior to the comma!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!!

This code is not making you loose text before a comma,
something else must do that

The translate function just replaces a ',' with a '', som removes the ','

Can we see the whole XSLT?

It seems odd that I wasn't losing any of the text prior to changing the code to include translate.

Gertone (Geert Bormans)

are there multiple street1 elements at that location?, or maybe multiple text nodes?
not sure it should matter, but using an old libxslt, one never knows

Can you show me the source XML for this?

I'm not sure what you mean by "source xml"

Gertone (Geert Bormans)

An XSLT transforms an XML into antother XML
the source from which you start is the source XML
so the XML that is your start point for this transformation is what I need

Ok, gotcha that makes sense. I don't know how I would get that though. I assumed those values were being pulled directly from the database.
