Hi Martin
Glad to see you here.
I took your suggestion and tried it and still gets the same error

	<xsl:template name="display-dec-sec">
		<xsl:param name="value" />
		<!-- xsl:value-of select="format-number($value,'#,.000 s')" / -->
		<xsl:value-of select="concat(format-number($value, '#,0.000'), ' s')"/>
	</xsl:template>

     [xslt] C:\detail.xsl:154: Fatal Error! Cannot convert string
"5.894 s" to a double
