Subject: Text substitution - macro? how?

I have a xml file that specifies date in terms of year, month, monthday,
i.e.,
<date>
<year>1998</year><month>8</month><monthday>12</monthday>
</date>
and I want to write out HTML but convert the <month> text node to be a
string, i.e.,
1 = Jan
2 = Feb
...
12 = Dec
I was looking over the XSL spec and really don't see a way of doing this!
<xsl:choose> appears close, but doesn't allow for string comparison. Am I
missing something or is this outside the scope of XSL?
Cheers,
Glenn
