Check what's set in your options for XSLT 2.0 validation options ->
preferences -> xslt -> engines used for XSLT validation.

oXygen 10 defaults to Saxon 9.1.0.3 so it shouldn't complain about the
if expression, but I'm not sure you'll get code completion for it.

The other way is to use "configure validation scenario" (wrench with a
red tick) to tell oXygen which processor to check the syntax with -
you can set more than one so its a good way to check your code is
portable across processors (static errors anyway)
