Works fine for me with msxml3, 4, saxon 6.5.2, 7.2, and xalan 2.4.1
I know there are issues with rounding .5's, but I think floor() is constant.
Which processor are you using??
cheers

Subject: [xsl] numerical inconsistencies doing dec to hex conv.
Hi,
I am using the below template to convert a decimal number
into a hex number. It seems to work correctly apart from
when I want to calculate the hex equivelent of the decimal
number - 4294967295. This number is of particular
significance as in Hex this should be FFFFFFFF (a 32 bit,
bitmask; i am using xml to describe registers in h/w).
The template outputs FFFFFFF0 abnd I dont know why.
The template seems to output the incorrect value for
1099511627775, which is the decimal representation of
FFFFFFFFFF in hex.
The recursive template is as follows:
<xsl:variable name="hexDigits" select="'0123456789ABCDEF'" />
<xsl:template name="toHex">
<xsl:param name="decimalNumber" />
<xsl:if test="$decimalNumber >= 16">
<xsl:call-template name="toHex">
<xsl:with-param name="decimalNumber"
select="floor($decimalNumber div 16)" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:value-of select="substring($hexDigits,
($decimalNumber mod 16) + 1, 1)" />
</xsl:template>
Can anybody figure out why this is happening or have an
equivelent template that can calculate the conversion
correctly?
Thankyou for your time.
