Re: Using format-number() to display French currency

french currency
Tempore 17:44:43, die 07/04/2005 AD, hinc in xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx scripsit Maria Amuchastegui <mamuchastegui@xxxxxxxxxxx>:

I originally had the pattern '##&#160;##0,00 $', but I got the following
error message:

Malformed format string: ##C!##0,00C!$

The error message indicates that the format string was actually '##&#160;##0,00&#160;$'. This looks illegal: the space that separates the number from the currency unit is the same as the grouping separator.



Try this template:
<xsl:template name="FrenchCurrency">
<xsl:value-of select="format-number(., '##&#160;##0,00', 'FrenchDecimalFormat')"/>
<xsl:text>&#160;$</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>


The dollar sign stands for the Canadian dollar.
I see. I'd cConsider renaming the template...

regards,
