Re: Find a specific element or fall back to element 1

<xsl:variable name="gallery-xml-file"
select="document($gallery-xml-path)"/>
<xsl:variable name="test-position">
  <xsl:for-each select="$gallery-xml-file//image">
    <xsl:if test="@default='true'">
      <xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
    </xsl:if>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="display-position">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="$test-position = ''">1</xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:value-of select="$test-position"/>
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

This seems a bit long and wasteful to me. Is there a better way?
