Hi,

this is a question mainly to Mukul, maybe someone else can help as well:

I have a question concerning Mukul's base64encode.xsl.

I want to include it in another script in order to encode some text. I
use Oxygen with Saxon 9B. Now I get the following error message:


Arithmetic operator is not defined for arguments of types (xs:string,
xs:double)
URL: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20/#ERRXPTY0004

The error points to this line in <xsl:call-template name="binaryToDecimal">:

<xsl:with-param name="sum" select="$sum +
substring($binary,string-length($binary) ) * $power"/>



I call the template from here:



<xsl:for-each-group select="//settlement[ancestor::text[@xml:id]]"
group-by="text()">
 <xsl:variable name="ortAsBase64">
  <xsl:call-template name="convertToBase64">
   <xsl:with-param name="asciiString" select="current-grouping-key()"/>
  </xsl:call-template>
 </xsl:variable>

[...]

<a href="http://dtm.bbaw.de/HSA/{$ortAsBase64}.html";>

[...]
</xsl:for-each-group>


Can you recognize where the fault may be or advice something else?

Thanks and best wishes, Torsten
