Subject: [xsl] Re: sum() over attributes is 0 From: Andreas Kemkes <a5sk4s@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2007 10:21:35 -0700 (PDT) |
I'm only subscribed to the digest, so I'm responding to my own message and hope it will end in the same thread. Ken: I'm using Java1.4.2 and according to the release notes that entails "... xalan-j 2.4.1+ (Xalan version 2.4.1 with controlled bug fixes)." <xsl:comment> <xsl:text>count: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="count(//lc:container[lc:item]/@select)"/> </xsl:comment> <!--count: 0--> but both count(lc:container[lc:item]/@select) and count(.//lc:container[lc:item]/@select) work. What would be the issue with using count(//lc:container[lc:item]/@select)?

The following two expressions <xsl:comment> <xsl:text>sum: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="sum(//lc:container[lc:item]/@select)"/> </xsl:comment> <xsl:comment> <xsl:text>list of select attributes: </xsl:text> <xsl:for-each select="//lc:container[lc:item]"> <xsl:value-of select="@select"/> <xsl:text> </xsl:text> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:comment> result in the following output: <!--sum: 0--> <!--list of select attributes: 2 3 1 --> I'm not clear why the result of sum() is 0. Are there any other prerequisites that I'm missing?
