Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to see if any of a given set of childnodes equals a given string. For example, in the XML and XSL code below, I want the text in the "xsl:when" statement to output when any of the childnodes of <FormulaValue > equal the string "Value". How can I do this?? I am trying to use XPath code but I can't get it to work.
Thank you!!
Christine

XSL code:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
   <xsl:template match="/">
      <html>
         <body>
         <xsl:for-each select="RecipeElement/Steps/Step/FormulaValue">
         <xsl:choose>
         <xsl:when test="name(child::node()[3])=Value">
                 <d>Value is present</d>
         </xsl:when>
         </xsl:choose>
         </xsl:for-each>
         </body>
      </html>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

XML code:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="stylesheet13.xsl"?>
<RecipeElement>
<RecipeElementID>UFDF_CLEANING</RecipeElementID>
	<Steps>
		<InitialStep XPos="700" YPos="100">
			<Name>INITIALSTEP:1</Name>
		</InitialStep>
		<TerminalStep XPos="800" YPos="1098">
			<Name>TERMINALSTEP:1</Name>
		</TerminalStep>
		
	<Step XPos="600" YPos="598" AcquireUnit="true">
			<Name>UFDF_CLEANING:1</Name>
			<StepRecipeID>UFDF_CLEANING</StepRecipeID>
			<UnitAlias>UFDF_CLEANING:1</UnitAlias>
		<FormulaValue>
			<Name>PUMP_SPEED</Name>
			<Display>false</Display>
			<Value />
			<Real>5</Real>
			<EngineeringUnits />
		</FormulaValue>
	</Step>
	</Steps>
</RecipeElement>
