Hi David,

I am using the xsl:choose statement with varied XPath expressions in
the for-loop, e.g.

    <xsl:for-each select="//Book/Author">
       -- the xsl:choose statement --
    </xsl:for-each>

I want the choose statement to work regardless of whether the
for-loop's XPath expression contains nodes or atomic values.

Any suggestions on how to solve this?
