Good day! I downloaded Altova XMLSpy trial, installed FOP 0.95 and tried to perform XSLT (version 1.0) transformation. My template is valid but during the transformation it fails on the line containing "date-time()" function:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:dt="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times" xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common" extension-element-prefixes="dt exsl">
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:value-of select="dt:date-time()"/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The error message is:
Error in XPath expression
Unknown function - Name and number of arguments do not match any function signature in
the static context - 'http://exslt.org/dates-and-times:date-time'
Please how to make this function available? I'm sure this function exists. The template works for example in this online XSLT tester: http://markbucayan.appspot.com/xslt/index.html
Thank you in advance! Vojtech
UPDATE: I installed SAXON 9 (both HE and EE), configured ALTOVA to use it but again the same error.
If you are using Altova or saxon you can use XSLT2 rather than XSLT1 so do not need to load the EXSLT extensions, xpath2 has this function built in
select="current-dateTime()"
