Re: [xsl] A beef with XSLT Sometimes too complicated

In this case, you can do without the xsl:text:

<xsl:variable name="bg_img">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="normalize-space($all_vars)=''">background_bright</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>background_faded</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

I too am annoyed by the syntax. My pet peev is that xsl:attribute has to be the first element. This is really annoying if you want to optionally add an attribute.

<xsl:variable name="bg_img">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="normalize-space($all_vars)=''">
<xsl:text>background_bright</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:text>background_faded</xsl:text>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

Is there a cleaner / simpler way to do this?  Any chance you can do
this in one line?
