Re: Boolean true and false as strings

I accidentially hit send before finishing...

=============================

As I'm trying to do conditional variable assignment (see the post below), I
have to use

<xsl:variable name="someName">
    <xsl:value-of select="true()"/>
</xsl:variable>

instead of

<xsl:variable name="someName" select="true()"/>

but apparently value-of select converts my variable to string instead of
boolean, and that leaves a dangerous trap in my code that people who follow 
up might try to test the string and always return TRUE.

Is there any other ways to assign boolean values using <xsl:variable> 
without putting "select" at the same line.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Hoi
