[docbook-apps] contentwidth attribute not transformed correctly

["Chris Johnson" <cjohnson at capcollege dot bc dot ca>]

Hi,

I'm seeing a strange 'feature' of SAXON. When I process a docBook file,
the contentwidth attribute of the imageobject element is altered when I
process the file with the html/docBook.xsl.

My setup:

I tried both SAXON 6.5.2 and 6.5.3, running on a Mac OS X (10.26), and
I get the same results from XMLMind's XXE editor (which also uses SAXON,
IIRC)
docBook 4.2 DTD
docBook XSL ver 1.61.3

The contentwidth="740" is transformed into width="739.9999999999999".
Strangely, the contentdepth="433" transforms correctly to height="433".

I checked the FAQ's, and googled this issue, to no avail. Any ideas?

XML source:

<figure id="hr-rpt-commit-f01">
  <title>Commitment Report</title>

  <mediaobject>
    <imageobject>
      <imagedata contentdepth="433" contentwidth="740"
fileref="../image-files/hr-rpt-commit-f01.gif" format="GIF" />
    </imageobject>
  </mediaobject>
</figure>

HTML from XSL transformation:

<div class="figure">
  <a name="hr-rpt-commit-f01"></a>
  <p class="title"><b>Figure&nbsp;1.1.&nbsp;Commitment Report</b></p>
  <div class="mediaobject">
    <img src="../image-files/hr-rpt-commit-f01.gif"
width="739.9999999999999" height="433" alt="Commitment Report">
  </div>
</div>

Cheers,
