Printing Current Date and Time
Dear List,
I am wondering if there is any built-in function to
ger the current date and time using XSL to print it in
the PDF generated using FOP. I have used java script
earlier while converting to HTML when displaying in a
browser but not done in regards to PDF.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Abhi

Clay,
have a look at http://www.exslt.org/. Some, if not all of it, is also
implemented in Xalan-J and in many other XSLT-processors as well.

Thanks! This is the type of information (URL, namespace, etc.) I was
looking for. J.Pietschmann just posted the link:
http://www.exslt.org/
...in a reply to my previous message, and I've been checking it out a
bit. I'd been there before "way back in 2002" (it seems like ages ago!),
but they've progressed a bunch since then. Wow! They've been busy there.
I'm impressed! It certainly warrants another look-see! Thanks for
bringing it back onto my radar!
If anyone has a need for some type of xsl-fo function they wish were in
the xsl-fo spec (mathematical, regexp, string functions, etc.), it
merits a look to see if it's been implemented by these folks!

Oops. Sorry I misunderstood what you were saying. But
I am not sure if what I have can answer your
questions.
I am using XSLT and XSL FO combined together to
generate PDF for the XML documents. SO essentially I
am using the XSL extension fucntions. I am sure that
you know bunch of those kinda functions. I am using
something like this
xmlns:date="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times"
<xsl:value-of select="date:date-time()"/>
I have this code some place in my stylesheet to
convert the XML into PDF using FOP.
I hope that this is what you had asked for.
Thanks,
Abhi

Abhi, I think you misunderstood my last message.
You indicated that you have found an extension function which gets the
current date and time for use in xsl-fo.
I have some questions for you:
- What is the name of the extension function?
- Where can this extension function for getting the current date and
time for use in XSL-FO be found?
- What is the namespace/uri?
- Can this extension function for getting the current date and time for
use in XSL-FO be used from the command line?
Thanks!

Which one? What's it called? What do I have to do to use it? Can it be
used from the COMMAND LINE?
Careful, your answer might end up in a FAQ! ;-p
