<xsl:for-each select test value

[melb]

I haven't done much work with XSL translations before and i'm stuggling to apply some code to a list of items. The when code works if it is not a list but I think I need to replace the ITEMCOST with something else but i'm not sure what. can someone help.

I am using this code as the <xsl:value-of select="format-number does not work with teh translator I'm using.

I am basically trying to set the resulting value as two decimal places, for currency.

<xsl:for-each select="LIST_PAYMENTS/ITEMCOST">
<xsl:apply-templates/>                       <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="substring-before(ITEMCOST,'.') ='' ">
     <xsl:value-of select='ITEMCOST'/>00<br/>
     </xsl:when>
     <xsl:when test="string-length(substring-after(ITEMCOST, '.' )) =1 ">
     <xsl:value-of select='ITEMCOST'/>0<br/>
      </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
    <xsl:value-of select='ITEMCOST'/><br/>
      </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each>
