Xalan format-number() does not handle numbers in exponential format

           Summary: Xalan format-number() does not handle numbers in
                    exponential format
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: 2.3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Xalan
        AssignedTo: xalan-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Markus.Reith@drkw.com


The format-number() function does not format numbers in exponential format, 
e.g. -1.2345E-67. More sophisticated numerical functionality would be nice 
especially for processing reports created by numerical applications,e.g. 
financial applications.
