Hi,
You can use XSL Conditional Choose.
Here it is :
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=".[p='1']">
<xsl:value-of select="q"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl therwise>
NO Message
</xsl therwise>
</xsl:choose>
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

my xml file is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml:stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="choose.xsl" ?>
<s>
<p>1</p>
<q>Message</q>
</s>
and xsl file is .
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=".[p='1']">
<xsl:value-of select="q"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl therwise>
NO Message
</xsl therwise>
</xsl:choose>

Hi,
I just checked the code in my IE 5.0.
I found following changes to be made to XSL:
Please implement it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="s">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=".[p='1']">
<xsl:value-of select="q"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
NO Message
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Changes Made:
1.Namespace attribute.
2.Introduction of for loop else use can use s/p and s/q respectively.
I have checked it in IE and it works fine.
Thanks.
