assigning an elements content to variable and then testing

From: Ian Rutgers <ian.rutgers@-----.--->

In transforming the <towing> element (boolean) I want the xlst document
test the <towing> element for the "true" text and if found output
"available", otherwise output "not available".  While the complete code
is on http://www.otima.ca/XML/auto2.xslt  from auto.xml .. below is the
relevant snippet.

The code below always evaluates to "false" showing "not available" ...
what I am doing wrong?

<tr>
   <td class="autoDescr">Towing</td>
   <td><xsl:variable name="towingCapable"      select=".//towing/text()"
/>
   <xsl:choose>
	<xsl:when test="$towingCapable=true">			
<xsl:text>Available</xsl:text>
	</xsl:when>
	<xsl:otherwise>					    <xsl:text>Not Available</xsl:text>
	</xsl:otherwise>
   </xsl:choose></td>
</tr>

Thank you,

Ian
