brilliant - works perfectly. thanks. (a possible suggestion: for newbies like me, it would be nice to have a very very basic example right on the front page of the site, which gives the "import" element and a simple call to "sin" (for example). now that i see how to do it, it is so simple it seems obvious, but at first i was confused how to call a "library" from xsl). thanks again, andrew Dimitre Novatchev said: > On Thu, 17 Mar 2005 22:50:16 -0400 (CLT), andrew cooke <acooke@xxxxxxxx> > wrote: >> >> >> Hi, >> >> I can't work out how to do more complex maths (like logarithms, trig >> functions, etc) in XSL.
