Seems like a long-winded way of just saying you want to check if <class> exists:
<xsl:when test="doc('factbase.xml')/facts/class">
If you then want to do something specific if the @id eq $id then add a
condition inside the xsl:when.
Or its probably cleaner to just add another when:
<xsl:when test="doc('factbase.xml')/facts/class[(_at_)id eq $id]">
there is a class with a matching @id
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="doc('factbase.xml')/facts/class">
there are one or more class elements, but none of them a matching @id
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
this aren't any class elements...
</xsl:otherwise>
You'd want to refactor the call to doc() into a variable too.
