I am a real newbie to XSLT, and probably this question is a piece of cake for you.

I have the following XML :















When I’m “positioned” in the element. How do I find out of there is any element present ?

Hello Nietzer,

I don’t really get your question … Perhaps you are mistaking sibling nodes with child nodes.

Sibling nodes of a node are the “brothers” & “sisters” nodes of the node.

So, as “complexType” is a child node of the “element” node, your XSL template could be :

<xsl:template match=“element[@name = ‘ReferenceDetails’]”>
xsl:choose

<xsl:when test=“complexType”>

</xsl:when>
xsl:otherwise

</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Here you go.

If you have any question, feel free to ask.
