Because Joe's Pizza is missing the url node, I don't get a pipe, which
throws off my columns. Is there a way to test for all possible nodes,
and where any are missing, to insert a character?
With XSLT 2.0 you could use e.g.
<xsl:template match="business">
<xsl:value-of select="(name, address, if (url) then url else '')"
separator="|"/>
</xsl:template>
if the url element is the only one that could be missing.
With XSLT 1.0 you might be better off to write one stylesheet that adds
empty elements as needed, then run your current stylesheet.
