You're right, the C-based switch only looks at a single variable...
that's why some people prefer to refer to an xsl-based 'choose' element
- each choice in the element has a fully-fledged test... switch _can_ be
implemented in this way, but it may be less confusing to use
choose/choice to avoid the C-like semantics from creeping in to people's
expectations.


Have a good weekend!
