Re: if test syntax

don't completly get what you mean but here is an
example where you check the first two characters in a
node match a variable

<xsl:stylesheet 
	xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
	version="1.0">
	<xsl:variable name="reqStart">R[</xsl:variable>
	
	<xsl:template match="text">	
		<xsl:call-template name="CheckTag">
			<xsl:with-param name="str" select="."/>
		</xsl:call-template>
	</xsl:template>
	
	<xsl:template name="CheckTag">
	<xsl:param name="str"/>			
			<xsl:if test="substring($str,1,2)=$reqStart">
					<xsl:if
test="substring($str,(string-length($str)),2)=$reqStart">
					<req_id>
						<xsl:value-of select="."/>
					</req_id>
					</xsl:if>
				</xsl:if>
			</xsl:if>
	</xsl:template>
	
</xsl:stylesheet>
