RE: testing for text in one of many elements

Assuming User as the context node, i think all you need to do is:

<xsl:if test="Function='Function Uno'">
...
</xsl:if>

Greetings

Here is the problem in a nutshell.  I've got xml that looks like this:

  <User>
    <Name>Joe User</Name>
    <Function>Function Uno</Function>
    <Function>Function Cinco</Function>
    <Function>Function Dos</Function>
  </User>

Using this I need to put xsl:if statements on a series of links (which
aren't in a neat list), so the links only display if the user has that
function.  I have some ability to control the xml, though not the function
names which do have spaces in them.

In psuedo-code I want to be like this:

  <xsl:if test="IfOneOfTheFunctionTagsHasThisValue('Function Uno')">
    <a href="function_one.asp">Func One</a>
  </xsl:if>

Any suggestion are welcome, including, "really you shouldn't set your xml
up that way, try this instead".  Though the constraint of the function
names do have spaces, so <Function_Uno>Yes</Function_Uno> isn't an option.
