Well, XSLT 1.0 already has this facility:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:data="urn:data-section"
exclude-result-prefixes="data">
<data:month name="Jan" days="0" />
<data:month name="Feb" days="31" />
<data:month name="Mar" days="59" />
<data:month name="Apr" days="90" />
<data:month name="May" days="120" />
<data:month name="Jun" days="151" />
<data:month name="Jul" days="181" />
<data:month name="Aug" days="212" />
<data:month name="Sep" days="243" />
<data:month name="Oct" days="273" />
<data:month name="Nov" days="304" />
<data:month name="Dec" days="334" />
<xsl:template match="/">
Days since January, 1.:
<xsl:value-of select="document('')/*/data:month[@name='Jan']/@days +
4" />
<!-- +4, because today is the fourth -->
or, if you have the number of the month
<xsl:value-of select="document('')/*/data:month[1]/@days + 4" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Cheers,
Oliver
