RE: Convert milliseconds into date

I used the following expression that I read in one of the archives:

<xsl:value-of select="xs:dateTime('1970-01-01T00:00:00') + $in *
xs:dayTimeDuration('PT0.001S')"/>

The name space used is xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-datatypes"

The result I get is NaN.

Saxon (both 6.5.5 and 8.7.1) support the "core" EXSLT date functions
but not
the "other" (non-core) functions listed at
http://www.exslt.org/date/index.html. The core functions don't include
any
date arithmetic.

I suggest you use Saxon 8.7.1 and use the XPath 2.0 date arithmetic
functions and operators as the simplest solution to your problem.
