No variable needed -- value defaults to 99999 unless your colID is 5, in which case @value is copied.

Replying to my own post... a simpler way to ask my question is: - is there a way to test if an element contains a given node (ColData[@colID='5']? -- then I can make my variable statement conditional instead of it's value, as one can't reset a variables value in XSL apparently..
You're on the right track:
<xsl:variable name="testVar"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:test if="@colID=5"> <xsl:value-of select="@value"/> </xsl:test> <xsl:otherwise>99999</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable>
Or sometimes there are more concise ways to achieve the behavior you want:
<input type="hidden" name="varPass" value="99999"> <xsl:copy-of select="@value[current()/@colID=5]"/> </input>
No variable needed -- value defaults to 99999 unless your colID is 5, in which case @value is copied.
Cheers, Wendell
XSL code..............(simplified to focus on dateVar problem) <td> <xsl:variable name="testVar" select="'optionA'"/> <xsl:for-each select="ColData"> <xsl:if test="@colID='5'"> <xsl:value-of select="@value"/> <xsl:variable name="testVar" select="'optionB'"/> </xsl:if> </xsl:for-each> <input type="hidden" name="varPass" value="{$testVar}"/> </td>
XML input............. <DataRow rowNumber="2"> <ColData colID="2" value="2003-10-03" /> <ColData colID="3" value="Bank One VISA (pay minimum)" /> <ColData colID="4" value="-100.00" /> <ColData colID="6" value="1010 · Operating Account (new)" /> <ColData colID="8" value="Bill Pmt -Check" /> <ColData colID="9" value="3241-1064422268" /> </DataRow>
