Hi.

I have a serious problem with the XPath Sum function. 
Am I using it incorrectly?  Should I use an
alternative method for my sum calculation.  Thanks in
advance for the help!

<Amount>10.00</Amount> 
<Amount>1.00</Amount> 
<Amount>2.76</Amount> 
<Amount>1.20</Amount> 
<Amount>1.41</Amount>  

Total should be 16.37

but,

<xsl:value-of select="sum($BatchPayments/Amount)"/>

calculates the value as 16.369999999999997

I do not think it matters, but this is on a Sun box
using Xalan and Xerces.
