Patricia YerichSubject: format-number function
Author: Patricia Yerich
Date: 11 Dec 2003 05:09 PM
Hi,
I'm having problems getting the format-number function to work. My usage is this: I have an xml element "someElementContent" which contains the value 16.7984. I want it to be 16.8.after the transform.

When I try this:

or any other format which has the # in it, I get an illegal character error.

When I try this:

I get a 17.

Is the format-number function supported?

Thanks,
Pat

Hi Patricia,

the format has to be a string, try

format-number(someElementContent, '##.0')

Ciao
Ivan
