Hi again. After continued searching, came across some postings and revised
my xsl as follows:

(The xml is simply either <measure name="firstpass">20 mm</measure> or
<measure name="firstpass/>.)

<xsl:template match="measure">
   <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="not(normalize-space(.))">
          <input type="text" name="{@name}" value="{.}"/>
      </xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>
           Entered: <value-of select="."/>
      </xsl:otherwise>
   </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

However, if the text node has content, now I get BOTH the input textbox AND
the test node value after that.
If there is no text node for <measure>, I just get the text box as desired.
I also tried test="not(string(.))" with the same results. Cleary I'm still
missing something?

Thanks.
