I have a fare element that is returned as, for example,
79000. The decimal point value is specified in another
element as for example 2. Therefore the number should be: 790.00
There's a way to do this mathematically:
Where x=DecimalPoint, and y=fare, the forumla would be y/(10^x)
But as far as I know there's no exponential function in XSLT
1.0. I'm using, or rather, _have_ to use MSXML, I can't go
for FXSLT, etc.
It's worth mentioning that fare is of type 'double' and
DecimalPoint is of type 'short'
Anyone have any ideas on how to do this in plain XSL ?
<xsl:value-of select="concat(substring(.,0,string-length(.) - $dp + 1),
'.', substring(.,string-length(.) - $dp + 1))"/>
$dp is the number of decimal places.
cheers
