*Very* impressive and clean solution, Andreas. I wish I could have thought of that.

YES !!! That's it !!! That's the way :-)

My problem was that I firstly counted the summary and then I've try to split
the fraction instead firstly count the integer and fraction and then only
disply them.

Thanks a lot !!!

To illustrate what I mean (untested, but seems OK, for positive numbers at least... gotta leave some to you ;)):

<xsl:template match="someNum">
  <xsl:variable name="vSum" select="sum(preceding::someNum)" />
  <xsl:variable name="vInt" select="floor($vSum)" />
  <xsl:variable name="vFrac" select="$vSum - $vInt" />

  <fo:block>
    <fo:marker marker-class-name="intMarker">
      <xsl:value-of select="$vInt" />
    </fo:marker>
    <fo:marker marker-class-name="fracMarker">
      <xsl:value-of select="substring(string($vFrac),3))" />
    </fo:marker>
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

and then

<xsl:template match="...">
  <fo:static-content>
  ...
    <xsl:text>integer part is </xsl:text>
    <fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="intMarker" .../>
    <xsl:text>fractional part is 0.</xsl:text>
    <fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="fracMarker" .../>
  ...
</xsl:template>

No?

IOW: don't focus *too* much on retrieve-marker alone, perform both sum and separation *before* creating the markers. Plus the usual completions, of course, like 'take care of floor(); for negative numbers use ceiling() to obtain the integer part' and 'take the absolute value of the fractional part'...

HTH!

Cheers,

Andreas
