Re: [xsl] Sum in conjunction with string splitting?

Above that code I expressed...

<xsl:stylesheet version='1.0' xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
        xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
        xmlns:func-transform="f:func-transform"
        exclude-result-prefixes="xsl func-transform">

        <xsl:import href="../../../Includes/fxsl-MS-1.1/transform-and-sum.xsl" 
/>
       <func-transform:func-transform/>

$Expenses actually looks like this:

<Expenses>
  <expense>mileage 10</expense>
  <expense>basketball</expense>
  <expense>icing</expense>
  <expense>mileage 40</expense>
</Expense>

I need a result of "50".

Does this help?

I don't see your complete stylesheet so it can only be noticed that
the expression:

    $expenses[substring(expense,1,7)='mileage']/expense

is very unlikely to be what you really want to express as the node-set
to be passed as argument.

This will select all "expense" children if the first "expense" child
happens to start with "mileage".


The problem could be that the $expenses variable doesn't contain what
you think it should.

Also, I am not sure you have specified a template reference node -- at
least it is not in the code, shown in your message.
