I'm building a guitar website which uses XML and XSLT.
http://www.madtim67.com/guitar/index.html You can search either by artist or
song. At the moment my XSL page only returns a result if the exact string is
entered i.e I have to enter 'baker street' or 'gerry rafferty' in order to
get a result. I would appriciate it if anyone could tell me how to modify
the code below so that if I enter 'baker' or 'gerry' I would get a result.
Heres my XSL page
