What happens if you add extra #s to the format, like '###,###,###', as a
possible workaround? Is that a valid format?

Michael,
Thanks for the response. I'm using Livelink and I wouldn't be surprised
if it's a bug but if there is it's going to really screw me up. Here's
the xsl line:
<td class="number"><xsl:value-of select="format-number(./Total_Cost,
'#,###,###')"/></td>
The xml is basically like this:
<Florida2004A>
<Total_Cost>3603664</Total_Cost>
</Florida2004A>
It comes back to me as '3.' There is no xsl:decimal-format specification
in my code. Again, this does format correctly for any number with 6
digits or less. Any suggested work around or other ideas? (other than a
new processor?) I guess I could use string functions to format
correctly.
Many thanks,
Carter
Which XSLT processor are you using? Unless there's something in your
code
you haven't told us about (like an unusual xsl:decimal-format
specification)
there's a bug in your processor.

I'm experiencing an xsl number-format function problem. The
number I want to format is '3603664', I use '#,###,###' and
it comes back as '3.'
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong? Any thing less than 6
digits works OK, it seems to break once it gets to millions.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Carter
