Re: [xsl] XSLT: check if value is whitespace(s)

["M. David Peterson" <m.david@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Off the top of my head it seems the easiest would be to use the translate 
function within the select attribute of a variable to convert spaces into 
non-spaces (nothing) and then use a simple boolean test to determine what to do 
next if it returns false... For example...

<xsl:variable name="testWhiteSpace" select="translate(foo/bar, ' ', '')" />

<xsl:if test="$testWhiteSpace">
...do something
</xsl:if>

Untested.

Hope this helps!
