SUM() most CERTAINLY is a function in XSL. >From page 554 of WROX, "XSLT 2nd Edition, Programmer's Reference" by Michael Kay,
"The sum() function calculates the total set of numeric values contained in a node-set. For example, if the context node is the element <rect x="20" y="30"/> then the expression <<sum(@*) >> returns 50." Now HOW are you going to tell me that SUM() isn't an XSLT function? When I remove the sum() from my SQL query, however, and simply use it from within the XSL page, I'm fine. I was just wondering what the best way to escape sql functions like SUM() would be using cocoon? >SUM() is not an XSLT/XPath function. Furthermore you wrote it as text, >not as expression, so this can't be the reason for your problem. >Joerg >Paul Tomsic wrote: > Is there a way to escape the SQL function SUM() > from within the <sql:query> element in the scheme.xml > file? > > I'm trying to do: > > <sql:query> > SELECT SUM(column) FROM WHATEVER WHERE etc... > </sql:query> > > but during the transform, I'm getting an error, > obviously, b/c the SUM() is a function from within > XSL. > > Thoughts? > > thanks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
