The reason I need to do this is because I have a template function like this:
</xsl:template>
Sometimes, I need to make the field name bold if it's an html output. If it's just a plain text output, I don't need to bold the field name. The same for the return (if it's plain text, I need <xsl:text> tag, otherwise, I need <br/>)
I'm thinking about using if statement to do this but don't know if there is a better way.
Thanks.

Hello Ming,
you don't tell us why you think you need to do this, so my first advice is, write it as:
<b><xsl:value-of select="'Article: '"/></b>
This is much simpler and it is working. (even simpler is: <b>Article: </b>)
In the case you want to calculate the formatting somehow in the stylesheet, or pass it in as a parameter, try:
<xsl:variable name="bold">b</xsl:variable>
<xsl:element name="{$bold}"> <xsl:value-of select="'Article: '"/> </xsl:element>
Hope this helps, Markus __________________________ Markus Abt Comet Computer GmbH http://www.comet.de

Hi,
I'm thinking about putting one of my html tag (bold) in the variable like this:
<xsl:variable name="bold" select="'<b>'"/> <xsl:variable name="endbold" select="'</b>'"/>
And then, in the output, I use the values like this: <xsl:value-of select="$bold"/><xsl:value-of select="'Article: '"/><xsl:value-of select="$endbold"/>
But the problem is that, when it prints out on the browser, it prints out <b> and </b> instead of making the "Article:" string bold.
And I cannot put '<' and '>' directly in my variables.
Do you have any suggestion how I might be able to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Ming
