I have a problem calling a webservice with a decimal value. At a certain height

I have a problem calling a webservice with a decimal value. At a certain height of the decimal value the internal encoding of the value becomes something like "1.0E8". I can still make this readible using the text() function. However if I send it to a webservice the service throws an error message that this is not a valid value for a decimal.

Is there a way to fix this other than using a string in the xml and have the service convert it internally?...
