RE: [xsl] variable with node in xsl:choose

["Michael Kay" <michael.h.kay@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The solution to this one is devious:

<xsl:variable name="anzrows"
  select="//user/nokeyuser/name[test=$anznokeyuser] |
          //user/keyuser/name[test!=$anznokeyuser]"/>

Of course, in XPath 2.0 you get a proper conditional expression...
