Subject: RE: [xsl] Parameter problem
Hi Dave
i have made the changes as you have said,
<xsl:template match="PartyList/When [last()]">
<xsl:param name = "first"/>
<xsl:param name = "last" select="@Attendance"/>
<xsl:variable name="difference" select = "$last -
$first"/>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="$first"/></TD>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="$last"/></TD>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="$difference"/></TD>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="PartyList/When [1]">
<xsl:variable name="firstN"><xsl:value-of
select="@Attendance"/></xsl:variable>
Change this to <xsl:variable name="firstN" select="@Attendance"/>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="$firstN"/></TD>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="following-sibling::When [last()]">
<xsl:with-param name="first" select="$firstN"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
but the parameter 'first' in template PartyList/When [last()]
still does not have a value. And difference is NaN.
That's because your firstN is a text node with white spaces before the
number, some xsl processors pass those as string instead of number
A tweak would be to use <xsl:with-param name="firstN"
select="number($firstN)"/> to force it to be a number
