Re: [xsl] casting string as integer or double

David,

Your method worked like a charm. I used it in the variable declaration and not
the with-param.

I'm storing that one away and start using it consistently. I know for a fact it
is not empty and at one point I thought my context was wrong. I tested it by
outputting the value of @cols as an attribute and each time a value appeared.
Then I'd keep the test there and then added the called template and then the
error message would appear.

Alls working fine now and appreciate the help. I guess this is what happens when
you listen to Wreckless Eric while coding.
