Re: [xsl] current month xslt 1.0

[Hermann Stamm-Wilbrandt <STAMMW@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Patrick,

if the processor supports XSLT 1.0 only, then no as Dimitre said.


But if EXSLT dates and times package is available:
Use
      http://exslt.org/date/functions/date-time/index.html
to get the current date and
      http://exslt.org/date/functions/month-name/index.html
to get the month.

What XSLT processor do you use?
Even some Web browsers support EXSLT at least partially.

No, there isn't a current-month() function in XPath 1.0 and neither is
this information part of the static context.

There is a workaround: Pass the current month as a parameter on
invoking the XSLT transformation.
