I guess the problem is that this is an attribute value
The parses all of that away, I am afraid
The attribute value is abc
the " would be gone after parsing
attribute boundaries can be " or '
if you really need either " or ' and the difference is important, 
I am afraid you would need a regex step before the XSLT (or read the file as a text file in the XSLT)

Met vriendelijke groeten,

My neural network thinks that sounds like

   substring-after($s, '"')

but perhaps I miss something that makes the requirements more complicated.
