RE: [xsl] Format Number and Empy Elements

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?

As Andrew says, long-windedness in XSLT 1.0 is a fact of life. But there are
some coding tricks available when it gets out of hand. For example

format-number(concat('0', discount), $currencyformat)
