Hey there,

What if I want to make a call to the document() function but I don't
expect any value?

I have a processing script that can be called from XSL which basically
just inserts a row into a table, a la....

document(concat($script,'module=Warn&amp;warning=Good riddance'))

But putting this <xsl:value-of select="document(...)" /> doesn't
really make any sense. I don't care about its value!


How about <xsl:for-each select="..."/> or <xsl:if test="..."/>

You might need to add a comment or something to make sure it doesn't
get optimized away, eg:

<xsl:if test=""> <!-- Success --> </xsl:if>

Even then I don't know if that will be enough...
