Example of <xsl:decimal-format>
This example shows how to format numbers using the <xsl:decimal-format>
element.
Note To test this example, you need to use a script. For more information, see Initiate XSLT in a Script.
XML File (root.xml)
You can view either this file or the XSLT file in Internet Explorer; the XSLT file calls itself.
