Re: if then else

Hi

I wanted to use the 'if then else' clause inside the <xsl:value-of select="">. I tried doing it this way but its obviously wrong as it returns an error.

<Value type="TEXT" ref="{CONCEPT/@ref}">
<xsl:value-of select="if(OBJECT-SLOT) then OBJECT-SLOT/@name else DATA-SLOT/@name"/>
</Value>

What would be the right way of writing it or is it incorrect to have it inside the select attribute of the xsl:value-of tag?

dearie me.....I think its probably a good thing to always state what version of XSLT you are using...cause if its XSLT 1.0 then we got problems...remember <xsl:choose><xsl:otherwise/></xsl:choose> may do your bidding.
