RE: zero-digit
Subject: RE: zero-digit From: Kay Michael <Michael.Kay@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2000 11:56:04 -0000 |
XSLT simply refers to the JDK 1.1 spec in this area, and I for one find that spec extremely fuzzy. But from experiment (Saxon simply uses the JDK DecimalFormat class) with <xsl:decimal-format zero-digit="a"/> <xsl:value-of select="format-number(123.45, 'aaa.aa')"/> produces bcd.ef which suggests that zero-digit does affect the digits used in the output as well as those used in the format pattern.
