Mukul's code well demonstrates the problems of implementing a 'procedure' in
xsl.

If all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail.

If you absolutely have to implement this in XSL then the solution works but
if you have other choices then perhaps those choices would be better.

A few of Ideas:-

If your target processor is MSXML then embedding some script in the XSL that
will handle this much more cleanly.  MSXML and possibly others support
adding objects to the processor to supply extended functions.

Pre-process the XML adding an attribute contain your prefered display string
or replace the value with you prefered string.
