Re: escape SUM function from within sql:query in scheme.xml??

2003-06-16 Thread Paul Tomsic
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.

 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

Calm down! XML and so XSLT is case-sensitive, so SUM() is not a XSLT 
function, but sum(). This difference is important! And there is still 
the fact, that you wrote it as text and not as expression in the XSLT 
meaning.

I have used sum in all of my sql:query elements, and they go through the 
transformer fine.  I am looking over my files now, and have probably 
about 20+ queries that all use sum.  I didn't have to escape them out.

Can you send the error you are getting?
