Re: Simple Conditionals

 Doug,

I suggest trying an xsl:choose .

Check out the following code that I use to generate a list of sections of a
document, generating a link if an ID exists for a section and just the text
if no ID exists. This code is part of my root rule.

 <UL class="LIST">

 <xsl:for-each select="REPORT/SECTION">

 <LI>

 <xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="./@id">
 <A href="#{@id}">
 <xsl:value-of select="./TITLE"/>
 </A>
 </xsl:when>

 <xsl:otherwise>
 <xsl:value-of select="./TITLE"/>
 </xsl:otherwise>
 </xsl:choose>

 </LI>

 </xsl:for-each>

 </UL>

Richard.
