You could try this...
<xtags:when test="keyword_file">
which will match if the current node (a <keyword> or <topic>) has at least
one child <keyword_file> child.
> Is there some way to do this?
Maybe something like this, iterate through all children of <help> then
branch based on the name
<xtags:forEach select="/help/*">
<xtags:choose>
<xtags:when test="name()='topic'">
....
process a <topic>
...
</xtags:when>
<xtags:when test="name()='keyword'">
....
process a <keyword>
...
</xtags:when>
<xtags:otherwise>
.....
</xtags:otherwise>
</xtags:choose>
</xtags:forEach>
