Remember that in the context of xsl:if test, there is a coercion to Boolean. When there is no @test attribute, the string() will evaluate to the empty string, which in turn evaluates to false. So I would expect no Yes for the first <B> and a Yes for the second <B>. ~Chris -- Chris Maden, text nerd <URL: http://crism.maden.org/ > bAll I ask of living is to have no chains on me, And all I ask of dying is to go naturally.b b Laura Nyro GnuPG Fingerprint: C6E4 E2A9 C9F8 71AC 9724 CAA3 19F8 6677 0077 C319
