Helle Joeri,


<xsl:when test="$node_detlijn[$node_position]/@type = 'text' or $node_detlijn[$node_position]/@type = 'style'">

I need to test if the attribute type = "style" or "text".


As far as I know, the syntax must be like your working solution:
test="$A='A' or $A='B' or $A='C'" <- The usual way

I don't think it is possible to group the right sides of the equations:
test="$A=('A' or 'B' or 'C')" <- Not possible
I have not tried this, but I seem to remember having seen on this list, that it is not possible.


If you have many tests (more than just two), perhaps it would be shorter if you make a variable with a short name that contains $node_detlijn[$node_position]/@type.

Regards,
Ragulf :)
