Subject: RE: XSLT: SUM function or "+" operator usage problems to display subtotal/total From: Kay Michael <Michael.Kay@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 27 Oct 2000 12:14:52 +0100 |
> <xsl:variable name="subtotal"> > <xsl:value-of select="$subtotal+number(Price)"> > </xsl:variable> You have fundamentally misunderstood the way XLST variables work, I'm afraid. XSLT is not a sequential programming language with assignment statements, it is a functional language in which you must express the output you want as a function of the input. Don't think about accumulating the total as you go along, think about calculating it at the point it is needed, using XPath expressions such as "sum(../item/price)".
