[xsl] use variable in <xsl:if test=

[Robert Sösemann <robert.soesemann@xxxxxx>]

How in the world ;-) can i use a variable in <xsl:if  test=..>

<xsl:variable name="condition" select="*[.//author='C. J. Date']"/>

  <xsl:template match="node()[name()=$entity]">
 <xsl:if test="boolean(string($condition))">
   <xsl:copy-of select="*"/>
 </xsl:if>
  </xsl:template>

This does not work neigther with
{$condition}
nor
anything else.

BUT I need to do it this way. I can NOT directly put it in there.

Who can help?
