Name

<xsl:decimalformat>

Synopsis

The <xsl:decimal-format> element defines a pattern by which the XPath format-number( ) function can convert floating-point numbers into text strings. The attributes are specified as follows:

name

The string by which the format-number( ) function identifies which <xsl:decimal-format> element to use. If this attribute is omitted, then the element establishes the default decimal format used by the format-number( ) function.

decimal-separator

The character that separates the integer part from the fractional part in a floating-point number. This is a period (decimal point) in English and a comma in French. It may be something else again in other languages.

grouping-separator

The character that separates groups of digits (e.g., the comma that separates every three digits in English).

infinity

The string that represents IEEE 754 infinity; infinity by default.

minus-sign

The character prefixed to negative numbers; a hyphen by default.

NaN

The string that represents IEEE 754 Not a Number; NaN by default.

percent

The character that represents a percent; % by default.

per-mille

The character that represents a per mille; #x2030 by default.

zero-digit

The character that represents zero in a format pattern; 0 by default.

digit

The character that represents a digit in a format pattern; # by default.

pattern-separator

The character that separates positive and negative subpatterns in a format pattern; a semicolon (;) by default.
