[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Is there another way to do this?
Being new to XSL tree climbing (sequential tokenising HTML/XML/SGML for years), I want to calculate the grand total for the saledetails. I have done my home work, around 3 XSLT books later I came up with this solution: <XML/> (note: this is only a fragment of the xml): <saledetails> <item> <sku>34860</sku> <description>Black felt-tip pens 0.4 mm</description> <units qpu="10">3</units> <unit.price gst="10">19.95</unit.price> </item> <item> <sku>49603</sku> <description>A4 Inkjet paper white</description> <units qpu="500">20</units> <unit.price gst="10">5.95</unit.price> </item> </saledetails> I use this call when I have matched="saledetails": <xsl:call-template name="grandtotal"> <xsl:with-param name="nodenumber" select="1"/> <xsl:with-param name="grandtotal" select="0"/> </xsl:call-template> To this template: <xsl:template name="grandtotal"> <xsl:param name="nodenumber"/> <xsl:param name="grandtotal"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="not(item[$nodenumber])"> <xsl:value-of select="format-number($grandtotal, '#0.00')"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="grandtotal"> <xsl:with-param name="nodenumber" select="$nodenumber+1"/> <xsl:with-param name="grandtotal" select="$grandtotal+(item[$nodenumber]/units * item[$nodenumber]/unit.price)"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> This works but I'm just wondering is there a simpler method for doing this?
