contains() tests for substring. If you set the substring to test for to
'', the test is also evaluated to true. Furthermore an "else" exists in
XSLT, but not for <xsl:if>, but <xsl:choose> and <xsl:when>. You can use
multiple (exclusive) <xsl:when>s and <xsl:otherwise>.
<xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="string(@value)"> the value of @value is: <xsl:value-of select="@value"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="not(@value)"> <!-- no @value found --> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="not(string(@value))"> There is nothing to see </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> Regards, Joerg SAL ROSALES Jr. wrote: I'm trying to test for a value of nothing for with XSL. I understand there are no 'else' statements available in xsl so I'm trying to get this to work. I thought using the not function would work but so far the only output I'm getting is from the 1st nested if statement XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
