[xsl] Format Number and Empy Elements

2007-08-06 21:18:37
Hi All

You guys helped me out with avoiding empty elements when summing 

        Sum(my_node[text()])

Works fantastically, but I'm still plagued by 'NaN' in my output. This
time it's caused by:

        format-number(discount, '$#,.00')

If I have <discount/> in my XML I want to display $0.00 in the output;
however, when discount is an empty element, I get NaN

The only way I can think of to get around it is something like:

<xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="string(number(discount))='NaN'">
                Discount: <xsl:value-of select="format-number(0,
$currencyformat)"/>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:otherwise>
                Discount: <xsl:value-of select="format-number(discount,
$currencyformat)"/>
        </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

Seem awfully long-winded. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance
