RE: get boolean based on an attribute value

Here's how my xml looks.

<result>
 <a attr1="something" attr2="false">
 <a attr1="something" attr2="false">
 <a attr1="something" attr2="true">
 <a attr1="something" attr2="false">
 <a attr1="something" attr2="false">
 <a attr1="something" attr2="false">
<result>


I hope it does not look like this because this is not well-formed xml.

I want to do an xsl:if which will return me true if
atleast one of the values of attr2 = true. If all the
values of attr2=false, I want the if statement to
return false.

How can I do that ? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Assuming the source is fixed to be well-formed, then this will do it (if
invoked from the "result" context) -

<xsl:value-of select='count(a[(_at_)attr2="true"])'/>

Cheers,
