Subject: Re: [xsl] Rule of thumb: Are XPath 2.0 or XSLT 2.0 constructs faster? From: Andrew Welch <andrew.j.welch@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 9 Feb 2012 10:13:28 +0000 |

My general guide is use XPath for simple tasks, say an if-then-else, but when its get past trivial, eg if-then-else-if-then-else, switch to the longer winded choose/when, as your future self with thank you for it. -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com
