My Friends,
Thank you for the many suggestions! I have tried them all and my issue, as
suggested by Jean-Francois appears to be related to the fact that my xml tag
"send-fax" is not a direct child of the node I am processing. Instead, it a
"remote descendant". Therefore, I used the following code:
<xsl:when test="count(//send-fax = 0">
I will have to review some docs to clearly understand the "remote descendant"
issue. It points out that I should have done a better job in my original
template design.
Thanks for all the input!
Jeff

Hi,
If you read "<send-fax>Y</send-fax>", it is possible that there are some extra
invisible charaters.
If you want, you can investigate with string-length() and if >1, try to
determine (then discard) unexpected characters.
However, I can imagine 2 simple solutions that should help:
First solution should be to use normalize-space() function, like this:
<xsl:when test="normalize-space(send-fax)='Y'">...
Another solution consists in using contains() function:
<xsl:when test="contains(send-fax,'Y')">...
Just for curiosity, what XSLT engine do you use?
HTH,
Pascal
