Re: [xsl] rounding numbers up or down

[Joerg Heinicke <joerg.heinicke@xxxxxx>]

XPATH has a function round(). If you have such things with 0.5, you can 
do something similar to <xsl:value-of select="round($Total_Pages) + 
0.5)"/>. How do you want to handle numbers between 0.5 and 0.999999? 
Maybe you need a <xsl:choose>-statement.
