ends-with

Whether one string ends with another

Description

The fn:ends-with function returns an xs:boolean value indicating whether one string ($arg1) ends with the characters of a second string ($arg2). Trailing whitespace is significant, so you may want to use the fn:normalize-space function to trim the strings before using this function.

Parameters

Description

arg1:string()

the entire string to test

arg2:string()

the substring to check for

collation:string()

the collation to use for comparing
