Wouldn't <xsl:param name="start-val" select="0"/> cause the parser to search for a child named "0" within the context node? Can it be safely assumed that if such a node does not exist the parser will return a numeric value of zero? If you're concerned about relying upon implicit type conversion, couldn't you use the following instead? <xsl:param name="start-val" select="number(0)"/> Bill Wade XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
