Re: xsl:when evaluated not=""

[robin@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Untested code follows:

<xsl:variable name="directory">
  <xsl:eval>getDirectory(this.getAttribute('page'))</xsl:eval>
</xsl:variable>

<xsl:choose>
  <xsl:when test="$directory">
    <A href="{$directory}" target="new_window">
      <xsl:value-of select="@text"/>
    </A>
  </xsl:when>
  <xsl:otherwise>
    <xsl:value-of select="@text"/>
  </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
