(I didn't spot this was xml-dev and originally replied to the sender
only - why does xml-dev default to the sender and not to the list?
Its really annoying... surely its best to have all responses in the
archives...)

You are checking whether the string "nameOfPerson" is equal to the
string "Sion", whereas you really want to check if the element with
that name has a string value equal to $value, eg:

<xsl:when test="*[local-name() = $condition] = $cond">
