[xsl] value of variable inside a condition doesn't work?

["Hubert Holtz" <Turnhose_alt@xxxxxxx>]

Hy,

first of all I know there is this <i18n> thing to make multilanguage sites, but that's not the topic.

I have enabled xslt-with-parameter in my sitemap, in my xsl file i have a global parameter 'lang' this is the parameter which should
contain the value of the equal url-parameter, so far so good.

Now I want to output text fragments in 2 languages, depending on this parameter, so I thought of sth. like this:

-- code --

<xsl:if test="($lang)='1' ">
    <xsl:variable name="stadt" select="Stadt"/>
     <xsl:variable name="Texteingabe" select="Hier Text eingeben"/>
    <xsl:variable name="berichtstatus" select="aktuell"/>
</xsl:if>

<xsl:if test="($lang)='2' ">
    <xsl:variable name="stadt" select="city"/>
    <xsl:variable name="Texteingabe" select="Please enter text"/>
    <xsl:variable name="berichtstatus" select="current"/>
</xsl:if>

..

<td><xsl:value-of select="$stadt"/></td>

-- code --


But I get an error message, that there is no 'stadt' variable, if I delete the <xsl.if> part then there is no error message, but then I can't change the
value of the variable depending on the 'lang' paramter, of course.

So could it be that variables can't be set in an if statement and if that's true what would be the solution?


thanks
