Re: OR in test

In XPath, 'or' is 'or'. '|' is the union operator, which unions
together two or more node sets to create another one. (This sometimes
gives the same result as 'or', but that's because when you test a node
set, it's "true" when the node set has a node in it and false
otherwise.)

So use:

  <xsl:if test="$type='text' or $type='password'">
    ...
  </xsl:if>

Then you need to test whether $type, converted to lowercase, is 'text'
or not. You can convert to lowercase using the translate() function.
Perhaps you want:

  <xsl:if test="translate($type, 'TEX', 'tex')='text' or
                translate($type, 'PASWORD', 'pasword')='password'">
    ...
  </xsl:if>

Cheers,
