So, I think the problem has been solved...



<xsl:variable name="hasZero">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="option[@value='0']">yes</xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>no</xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

Let me know if this is wrong.

Looks good to me since you are stuck with XSLT 1.0.



Otherwise, I have a more challenging
problem that I will post when I can figure out how to ask the question
correctly.

Bring it on!  :{)}
