Re: xsl:if/xsl:when test

Hi Philip:

I see what you are saying...however the test I need to do is to "compare"
two values from two separate documents. Also, I need to test multiple pairs
and if all the tests are true, I return the list of <URL>'s from the
original context node.  For this I need to change the context node back and
forth between two documents and "store" the test result until I am done
parsing the entire set of <NODE>.

Either I am trying to achieve too much in form of genericness...or my XML
design is flawed. I need some help with that.

Maulik.

do the test

if test is ok:

You've got two nodes and three URLs. You call the inner xsl:for-each two
times and get three URLs => you get six results.

You probably want something like:
for-each NODE
  do the test
if all tests are ok
  for-each url
    do what you like
