Subject: Re: [xsl] sum within template From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 19 May 2003 16:21:59 +0100 |
I have a template, <xsl:template match="purchaseOrder/items/quantity"> <xsl:element name="quant"><xsl:value-of select="current()"/></xsl:element> </xsl:template> You could more simply do <xsl:template match="purchaseOrder/items/quantity"> <quant><xsl:value-of select="."/></quant> </xsl:template> By changing value-of select=sum(current()) it throws an error. Assuming you meant select="sum(current())" with teh "" then it should not be an error but current() only returns one node so the sum() will only be taking the sum of one thing, so it will be the same as using number(). .I would like to get the sum of all the 'quantity' fields within items. so you want a template for items not for quantity <xsl:template match="purchaseOrder/items"> <xsl:value-of select="sum(quantity)"/> </xsl:template> David ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star Internet.
