xslt haschildren
Jakob,

Assuming your context node holds the TYPE attribute you want to check:

<xsl:when test="contains(@TYPE,'hasChildren')">

A good book would clarify for you the distinction between XSLT instructions (things like <xsl:value-of select="..."/>) and the XPath expression language, which is what you really want to use here.

Cheers,
Wendell

I want to test if "hasChildren" is contained within (or equal to) the value
of the attribute "TYPE" in a node, so I've tried to use this:

<xsl:when test="contains(value-of select='@TYPE','hasChildren')">

but it doesn't work, so what to do?
