XSL like or fuzzy search?

Use ( in the select attribute) the standard XPath function contains() as in following XPath expression:

foo[contains(foo_type, '1')]

Depending on the concrete case, other standard XPath functions, as listed below, may also be useful:

• starts-with()

• ends-with()

• substring()

• substring-before()

• substring-after()

• string()

• string-length()

• concat()

• translate()

• normalize-space()

• matches()

• replace()

• tokenize()

Do note that ends-with(), matches(), tokenize() and replace() are available only in XPath 2.0.

One can use the following XPath 1.0 expression for the same purpose as the XPath 2.0 function ends-with():

  substring($s, string-length($s) - string-length($target) +1)
=
  $target

is equivalent to:

ends-with($s, $target)

Not exactly, but you have a lot of string functions, as contains, starts-with, etc. You can see MS' documentation on these functions here:

Your particular select would be something like:

<xsl:for-each select="*[contains(name(),'1')]">
