The problem is not the operator but the fact that '0' is a string. If
you want to compare them as numbers, remove the quotes from the zero.
Also, the "./" is unnecessary/implied. Finally, the way you wrote it,
if you remove the quotes, you'll get the results you want, but

  <xsl:if test="mytag &gt; 0">

is probably easier and has the same result. If there's a chance that
there's more than one mytag child, you might want to change that to 
mytag[1] to only look at the first one.
