> Andrew Welch >So basically always type your parameters - if you're expecting a string that can be empty then you want: ><xsl:param name="foo" as="xs:string?"/> >...and then using test="not($foo)" should be fine. In the function below, I've typed my $xpath, but still the empty string was passed to saxon:evaluate and generated the 'Expected node but received EOF' message from Saxon. When I changed it to check for string-length, I received my custom error message. Did I miss something? <xsl:function name="fk:eval"> <xsl:param name="context" as="node()+"/> <xsl:param name="xpath" as="xs:string" /> <xsl:param name="msg" as="xs:string" /> <xsl:choose> <!-- <xsl:when test="not($xpath)"> --> <xsl:when test="string-length(normalize-space($xpath)) eq 0"> <xsl:text> Custom error message. </xsl:text> </xsl:when> <!-- More code removed --> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:sequence select="$context/sax:evaluate($xpath)" /> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:function> Thanks!
