To get rid of "in" etc. you can use translate(@COLWIDTH,"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz","") to get just the numerical value. <xsl:template name="get_total_width"> <xsl:param name="nodes" select="/.."/> <xsl:param name="sub_total" select="0"/> <xsl:variable name="width" select="number( translate($nodes/@COLWIDTH, 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz', '') )"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="count($nodes) > 1"> <xsl:call-template name="get_total_width"> <xsl:with-param name="nodes" select="$nodes[position() != 1]"/> <xsl:with-param name="sub_total" select="$sub_total + $width"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$sub_total + $width"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> then you can call it to get the total for the table you're looking at: <xsl:variable name="total_width"> <xsl:call-template name="get_total_width"> <xsl:with-param name="nodes" select="TGROUP/COLSPEC[@COLNUM]"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> and as long as the variable's in scope, use it to calculate the percentage. hth, Tom SW XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
