Re: [xsl] if then else

[RQamar <qamar_rahil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Im using the latest version of the 'Exchanger XML Editor'. I assume it 
has an XSLT2.0 processor as Ive used tags such as :
<SubConcept id="{@id}" name="{@name}">
which I believe are version 2.0 compatible.

The error message I get is not very informative but Ive pasted it below 
anyways:

----------------------

[SAXON 6.5.3 from Michael Kay] Starting transformation ...
ERROR: Error in expression if(OBJECT-SLOT) then OBJECT-SLOT/@name else 
DATA-SLOT/@name: Unknown system function: if; SystemID: 
file:/C:/Samples/Processor1.xsl; Line#: 31; Column#: -1

FATAL ERROR: Failed to compile stylesheet. 1 error detected.


Transformation Interrupted!
