RE: [xsl]Counting Child Nodes?

Hi,

Thanks to all of you who helped pitch in to make this code work. Now, this code is basically working, but I don't know why it generates the background image as either _med.png or _large.png, while those with string length smaller than 25 characters still generate the second <xsl:if> statement, by generating the _med.png just the same as the second condition.

Is this another boolean problem I am having? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
