Subject: Re: [xsl] How can I test if element is empty? From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2001 13:54:07 GMT |

(see the faq pages, I'd guess) equality is = not == and the above would test true for <elem><anything/><x><y/></x></elem> sometimes you do want to test for that, but it isn't testing if the element is empty. <xsl:when test="elem/node()"> tests if elem has any child nodes (text, comments, elements, pis) David _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Control Centre.
