Taken literally, there can't be more than one node "/ruledef" in
an XML document, since there can only be one document node.
But assuming there are multiple ruledef nodes somewhere, the test
<xsl:when test="ruledef/@pageeject = 'yes'>
[Result]
</xsl:when>
will do what it seems you want: it will generate the [Result]
whenever *any* element (child of the current node in this case)
named "ruledef" has a "pageeject" attribute with the value "yes".
You don't need a loop; XPath semantics are like a database query,
with the "does any such thing exist" idea built in.
I don't thinkr recursion will help, either. So can anyone
kindly give me
some suggestions, thanks and enjoy the weekend.
You too!
Lars
