Re: [xsl] Date Difference

[thomas.maciejewski@xxxxxxxxx]

would something like this work?

                  <xsl:variable name="todays-date"
select="/xmlReportOutput/transactionDate"/>
                  <xsl:variable name="date-diff"
select="xsl:dateTime(saxon:evaluate($idxSettleDate) ) -
xsl:dateTime(xsl:date(sgfr:StringToDateFormat($todaysDate) ))"/>

In 2.0 you can use the various duration functions (google for
xdt:dayTimeDuration).  If you are limited to 1.0, the you can use the
exslt:date package: http://www.exslt.org/date/index.html.
