Subject: [xsl] Finding Even and odd in xslt

Hi,
I want to test whether a number is even or odd. Therefore I have the
following code.

<xsl:variable name="namePadding">9</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="modulas" expr="$namePadding mod 2"/>

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$modulas=number(1)">
<xsl:variable name="toss">1</xsl:variable>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:variable name="toss">0</xsl:variable>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

<xsl:value-of select="$toss"/>

But when I print out the value of $toss then processor complains that "toss"
is not defined.

Thanks in advance,

Your variable is out of scope, you need to reverse the xslt:

<xsl:variable name="toss">
<xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="$modulas=number(1)">1</xsl:when>
 <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
