Re: [xsl] Param redirection

[Steve <subsume@xxxxxxxxx>]

<xsl:variable name="result">
<xsl:choose>
  <xsl:when test="$a_or_b" = $a> <!-- or "a" if that's what you mean -->
        <xsl:value-of select="$a" />
  </xsl:when>
  <xsl:when> <!-- or <xsl:otherwise> ... -->
       <xsl:value-of select="$b" />
   </xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

then <xsl:value-of select="$result" />.
