RE: [xsl] EXSLT

[Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also, many times you don't actually need the function, since you can 
stringify a node set by iterating over it:

<xsl:variable name="RTF-value">
  <xsl:for-each select="$node-set">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>

Then you might actually want "string($RTF-value)" to get a true string (so 
if it's empty it'll test false, as an RTF won't, etc.).

Cheers,
Wendell
