Hmm.. is that so ?
Yes, it is so.
Please: asking a simple beginner's question, getting a correct answer
from an expert, and then questioning whether it is correct is not very
polite.

Because my current node will be <Paragraph> and not <paraitem>.
Also, it can have other elements as children. So I need to
have a specific "test" that checks if that child exists
before APPLYING stylesheets for that child.
<Paragraph>
<ParaItem>
<ParaItem>
<ParaItem>
....
<Paragraph>
Let me know :). Is there a better expression to check if the
current NODE (paragraph) contains ATLEAST one child PARAITEM.
:)

Subject: RE: [xsl] determining if one or more instances of a
child are present in the current node element
Hi,
<xsl:if test="count(child::*[name()=('ParaItem')]) >=1">
<!-- Check if this expression is correct -->
Is this expression correct in being able to determine if
the current
node has one or more instances of the child ParaItem?
Yes, but the easies way would be just to test with
<xsl:if test="ParaItem"/>
