I have the following XML.

             </SplitNameList>
             <FulNameList>
                         <FullName>DAVID JONES</FullName>
                         <FullName>ANDREW J SMITH</FullName>
                         <FullName>JOHN SMITH</FullName>
             </FulNameList>
</XML>

I need to know if any of the Family Names match in the two lists. Either of these two lists could be quite long and this is in the middle of a load of logic. All I need here is a True/False. It doesnbt have to be an exact match just as long as it matches the FamilyName.


<xsl:template match="SplitNameList">
<xsl:variable name="test">
<xsl:for-each select="SplitName/FamilyName">
<xsl:value-of select="boolean(/XML/FulNameList/FullName[contains(., current())])"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:if test="contains($test, 'true')">..</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
