Given the XML:
<current rate="0.1412" />
The desired output to screen is:
14.1200%
However, the current transform:
<xsl:value-of select="format-number(current/#rate, '###,##0.0000')"/>%
Yields the output:
0.1412%
Is it possible to do a format-number transform that will output a value in the desired format (four decimal places) given the current XML input or does it require a change in the xml input to better match the expected output?
Say:
<current rate="0.141200" />
There is no need to multiply or use any other tricks - just tell the format-number() function you want the number to be formatted as percent:
<xsl:value-of select="format-number(current/#rate, '#,##0.0000%')"/>
If your rate is being stored as a decimal, then you will need to multiple by 100 to show it as a percentage:
<xsl:value-of select="format-number(current/#rate * 100, '###,##0.0000')"/>%

I am trying to pad an output in XSLT with variables being multiplied in XSLT 1.0. I cannot use the format-number because it will auto-round the numbers but I need to get the decimals in place. I can get this to work when I use column formatting within the XML, but since this has multiple column formats within the value-of-select, it does not seem to work here and obey the 7 in the code below:
<xsl:value-of select="substring(E_BaseRate * E_NormalHours * 2, 1, 7)" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
The output I am getting is: 1601.93 translated to 160193 but I need to get the result of 0160193. Is there a way to do this?
I broke this out to give you an idea. You could use as is or put it all together into one select...
<xsl:variable name="numToString" select="string(160193)"/>
<xsl:variable name="numLen" select="string-length($numToString)"/>
<xsl:variable name="value" select="concat(substring('0000000', 1, 7 - $numLen), $numToString)"/>
my XML looks like this
<SAC05>7100</SAC05>
I need to format <SAC05> from 7100 to 71.00 in the display.
I've tried this:
$<xsl:value-of select="format-number(SAC05, '###,###,###.##')"/>
But it comes back at $7100
format-number() function formats the input value into the specified format. Since the input value is 7100 it will try to convert it into 7100.00 and not 71.00.
You need to divide the input by 100 and then apply the formatting. Also you can make use of the concat() function to prefix $ symbol to the output.
<xsl:value-of select="concat('$', format-number(SAC05 div 100, '###,###,###.00'))" />
Given a set of 'numbers' 0242, 0980, 0526, 1732, ...
How can I transform them to look like 24,2 98,0 52,6 173,2 ?
I'm trying xsl:value-of select="format_number(0242,'#,##'), but that would produce 2,42. With the '##,#' the output is 2,4,2
Cheers.
First, define a custom decimal format and place it at the top level of your stylesheet:
<xsl:decimal-format decimal-separator="," grouping-separator="."/>
Then you can use:
<xsl:value-of select="format-number(0242 div 10, '#,0')"/>
to get 24,2 and so on.
Alternatively, you could use:
<xsl:value-of select="translate(format-number(0242 div 10, '#.0'), '.', ',')"/>
You can divide it by 10 to get the number right, then format it.
<xsl:value-of select="format-number(node() div 10, '#.0')" />
Please note that I used a dot instead of the comma to use the decimal point operator (for operators see definition on w3schools).
i have troubles filtering with XSLT, basically i have an xml, where i would like to get only those items where the Due Date falls into interval of 3 months ... i've written the following:
<xsl:variable name="TaskRows" select="/dsQueryResponse/Tasks/Rows/Row[#DueDate > $IsoBeginQuartDate AND #DueDate < $IsoEndQuartDate]"/>
But I get an error: "Failed seting processor stylesheet: expected token ']' found 'NAME' ...
IsoDates are calculated and formated dates in ISO format ...
Any idea, how to do it, or i can't use "AND" when filtering?
PS: i'm using XSLT 1.0
There is case-sensitivity at work here! Try using 'and' instead of 'AND'.
Unfortunately in XSLT 1.0, you can't compare dates to see if a date is between two values.
What you could do is something like this:
<!-- Make sure to format this variables as YYYYMMDD -->
<xsl:variable name="$IsoBeginQuartDate">20130101</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="$IsoBeginQuartDate">20131231</xsl:variable>
<!-- Make sure #DueDate also has the format YYYYMMDD, in this example I assume the DueDate has format YYYY-MM-DD -->
<xsl:variable name="TaskRows" select="/dsQueryResponse/Tasks/Rows/Row[translate(#DueDate, '-', '') > $IsoBeginQuartDate and translate(#DueDate, '-', '') < $IsoEndQuartDate]"/>
You now get errors, because > and < or not supported for strings or dates.
Hope someone can help. I am trying to compare 2 dates inside an XML file and using a XSLT to do some calculation:
For example I have 2 dates in XML: 2011-05-23 and 2011-04-29. I want to do calculation inside XSLT like below:
('2011-05-23'-'2011-04-29')*30 = 24*30= 720
Can anyone shed any light?
An XSLT 2.0 solution
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:value-of select="days-from-duration(
xs:date('2011-05-23')
- xs:date(xs:date('2011-04-29'))
)*30"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Yields: 720
xs:date() function evaluates the dates, which can be used to perform date operations
subtracting the second date from the first yields the xdt:dayTimeDuration P24D (24 days)
days-from-duration() extracts the days component from the xdt:dayTimeDuration (24)
then you can use that number to perform normal arethmatic (e.g. 24*30=720)
It might be worth looking at the EXSLT - date:difference solution. I believe that should do what you want, and there's even a straight XSLT implementation available.
Be aware though that the returned value is in duration format as specified in the XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition, so it's likely you will need to process the result to derive the unit you wish to use in calculation (for instance in your example above you're expecting a result detailing the number of days difference - so you would need to pull out the relevant unit you want to work with, the result from date:difference in that case would most likely be "P24D").
Here's two templates I sometimes use for date calculations:
<xsl:template name="calcseconds">
<xsl:param name="date" />
<xsl:value-of select="(((substring($date,1,4) - 1970) * 365)+floor((substring($date,1,4) - 1970) div 4)+substring('000,031,059,090,120,151,181,212,243,273,304,334,365',substring($date,6,2)*4-3,3)+(substring($date,9,2)-1)+(1-floor(((substring($date,1,4) mod 4) + 2) div 3))*floor((substring($date,6,2)+17) div 20))*86400+(substring($date,12,2)*3600)+(substring($date,15,2)*60)+substring($date,18,2)" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="calcdays">
<xsl:param name="date" />
<xsl:value-of select="(((substring($date,1,4) - 1970) * 365)+floor((substring($date,1,4) - 1970) div 4)+substring('000,031,059,090,120,151,181,212,243,273,304,334,365',substring($date,6,2)*4-3,3)+(substring($date,9,2)-1)+(1-floor(((substring($date,1,4) mod 4) + 2) div 3))*floor((substring($date,6,2)+17) div 20))" />
</xsl:template>
They're a bit of a mouthful, but they'll calculate the number of seconds/days since midnight 1st January 1970 as an integer, which you can then do straight arithmetic on. They rely on the date format being yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss, but manipulation of the parameters of the substring calls should allow you to process dates in any format you need.
