Check if a string is null or empty in XSLT

How can I check if a value is null or empty with XSL? For example, if categoryName is empty? I’m using a when choosing construct. For example: <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test=”categoryName !=null”> <xsl:value-of select=”categoryName ” /> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select=”other” /> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> 14 Answers 14
