RE: conditionally accessing attribute value of the sam

	<xsl:when test="//choice/action/@type[.='accept']">
		<xsl:value-of select="//choice/action/@imodetask" />
	</xsl:when>


Translating into English:

When I have an attribute called "type" whose value is equal to the
string "accept" somewhere on the tree, which is a child of an element
"action" and a grandchild of an element "choice", give me the first
value of the "imodestask" attribute on the tree which is also a child of
an element "action" and a grandchild of an element "choice".

i.e. your use of the // at the front makes your XPath pretty
meaningless.
