I can change the source format, this is only an example:
<multiply>

        <arg2>3</arg2>
</multiply>
This should yeld 6, and it's easy.
But I would also like to do:
<multiply>
        <arg1>
                <sum>
                        <arg1>1</arg1>
                        <arg2>2</arg2>
                </sum>
        </arg1>
        <arg2>3</arg2>
</multiply>

The others have posted stylesheets to do the simple arithmetic functions. I'm posting to recommend that you take advantage of your ability to change the format and use MathML. Most of the work (DTD-wise) is done for you, and if you ever want to expand what functions you handle, the groundwork is already laid.
