I am working on my XSLT homework. I got stuck at one point and don't know what to do. Please help.

There's 3 files, golf.xml, golf.css, and golf.xsl.

This is the part I can't figure out on my xslt doc
- declare a variable named backNineScoreText, setting the value of the variable to the text string returned by calling the formatScore template using the value of the backNineScore variable for the scoreValue parameter.

I have created the named template for formatScore. Here it is:
<xsl:template name="formatScore">
<xsl:param name="scoreValue" select="golfer//score" />
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$scoreValue = 0">
<xsl:text>E</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:call-template name="formatScore">
<xsl:with-param name="scoreValue" select="format-number($scoreValue, '-#;+#')" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:otherwise>

</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>


Then I try to apply this to a calcScores template (that's what the assignment wants). I highlighted the part I need to revise. I don't understand what I need to do.

<xsl:template name="calcScores">
<xsl:param name="currentRound" />
<xsl:param name="currentHole" />
<xsl:variable name="parTotal" select="sum(//par[@holeNumber &lt;= $currentHole])" />
<xsl:variable name="golferTotal" select="sum($currentRound/score[@holeNumber &lt;= $currentHole])" />
<xsl:variable name="currentScore" select="$parTotal - $golferTotal" />
<xsl:variable name="currentScoreText">
<xsl:value-of select="$currentScore" />
</xsl:variable>
<td><xsl:value-of select="$currentScoreText" /></td>

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$currentHole = 18">
<xsl:variable name="backNinePar" select="sum(//par[@holeNumber > 9 and @holeNumber &lt;= 18])" />
<xsl:variable name="backNineGolfer" select="sum($currentRound/score[@holeNumber > 9 and @holeNumber &lt;= 18])" />
<xsl:variable name="backNineScore" select="$backNinePar - $backNineGolfer" />
<xsl:variable name="backNineScoreText">
<xsl:value-of select="$backNineScore" />
</xsl:variable>
<td class="sub"><xsl:value-of select="$backNineScoreText" /></td>
<td class="final"><xsl:value-of select="$currentScoreText" /></td>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$currentHole = 9">
<td class="sub"><xsl:value-of select="$currentScoreText" /></td>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>



Please also see my attachment for all my files. basically this is what i need to achieve, If the number for Round Total is = 0, it should display text string of "E". A negative value should be displayed as - value, and the positive value should be displayed as + value.

Thanks.
