I assumed you were using XSLT 2.0 but in case you are using 1.0 here is some elaboration on testing equality. (The "or" operator is supported in both) In XSLT/XPATH 1.0 the "=" operator compares atomic values. In XSLT/XPATH 2.0 the "eq" operator is used to compare atomic values and the "=" operator may be used to compare all items in the "left-side" sequence to all items in the "right-side" sequence and will "return true" if any left-side item is equal to any right-side item. If the left and right sides both specify single-item sequences then "=" will be semantically equivalent to "eq". Although you can "get away" with using "=" to compare atomic values you're better off using "eq". Take care
