Subject: [xsl] FW: Number formatting in the XSLT standard From: "Christian Sunesson" <christian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2001 16:30:53 +0200 |
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 For those of you working on the XSLT standard. What is the rationale for letting format-number() use the localized decimal format syntax? XSLT 1.1, section 12.3: "The format pattern string is in a localized notation: the decimal-format determines what characters have a special meaning in the pattern (with the exception of the quote character, which is not localized)." Personally I find this most annoying. The decimal-format language is _different_ for different locales because of this (duh). And when I just need to swap the meaning of ',' and '.' I have to go modify every format-number()'s formatting string! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.3 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBO1wm6Aq6VMU/5vvPEQKojACgmDbzcFyQ0LFHTILu4WZ/booy3HgAmwea IBXGzylGyYGLfuNfwEyLIDli =6koG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
