If I understand you correctly I think what you want is:

<xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="$cat='web_browser'">
  Internet / Browsers / Web Browsers
 </xsl:when>
 <xsl:when test="$cat='...'">
  Internet / Browsers / ...
 </xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>

You could either put that inline where you need it, or if you need in
several places, stick it in a variable like so:

<xsl:variable name="cat" select="category"/>
<xsl:variable name="banner">
<xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="$cat='web_browser'">
  Internet / Browsers / Web Browsers
 </xsl:when>
 <xsl:when test="$cat='...'">
  Internet / Browsers / ...
 </xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
