All,
Please be aware of another apparent error in the date:difference template:
the duration calculated across leap-days is one day short, so:
<xsl:call-template name = "date:difference">
<xsl:with-param name = "start" select = "'2004-02-28'" />
<xsl:with-param name = "end" select = "'2004-03-10'" />
</xsl:call-template>
yields duration = "P1D" instead of P2D as expected (2004 is a leap year).
I attach a test harness which can be used to illustrate the problem. I have
reproduced the behaviour using msxsl and xalantransform.
Does anyone else agree?
