   RE: [xml-dev] abs() function (was random title borrowed from another thr

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Saxon 6.5.3 implements XSLT 1.0 which does not provide an abs() function.

abs() is defined in XSLT 2.0/XPath 2.0; for that you need Saxon 8.7.3.

XSLT questions are best asked on the xsl-list at www.mulberrytech.com
