Subject: RE: [xsl] why isn't there data-type for variable like sort? From: "Michael Kay" <michael.h.kay@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2002 09:05:51 -0000 |
There is no facility within XSLT 1.0 to read numbers in scientific (exponential) notation: you will have to use an extension function (e.g. Java or JavaScript). Or you could use Saxon 7.0, which implements some of the XSLT 2.0/XPath 2.0 facilities in this area.
