well stick an xsl:if around it that does that test then.

One way I was thinking of coming round this problem is to declare a global variable and then assign it a value locally

XSLT doesn't have separate declaration and binding of variables.
If you have declared a variable it already has a value (and it you can't
give it another one.)


Right, I'll try to resolve my problem this way (provided XSLT has some workaround, that is).

But before I set off just wanted to confirm if there is absolutely no way in which I can create the node <SubConcepts> to be the child node of <Top> instead of its default parent <PrimeConcept> (as its being created within the <PrimeConcept> template) ?
