[xsl] Testing for special characters

Hi,

I have used  Adobe Acrobat to export a PDF as XML and I am wanting to 
convert it.

Sometime it displays an unordered list like this:



<Sect>
   <P>List: </P>
   <P>Item 1; </P>
   <P>. </P>
   <P>Item 2; </P>
   <P>. </P>
   <P>Item 3; </P>
   <P>. </P>
</Sect>

Which I am trying to convert to this:



<Sect>
   <P>List:</P>
   <UL>
       <LI>Item 1; </LI>
       <LI>Item 2; </LI>
       <LI>Item 3; </LI>
   </UL>
</Sect>

The best I can think of is to check if there is a bullet point then use the 
previous <P> node.  At the moment I am having trouble just checking if there 
is a bullet point as this doesn't seem to work:

<xsl:if test="P='. '">



I am thinking it might be because it is a special character. I have tried 
specifying the output as UTF-8

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" encoding="UTF-8" />



But that didn't seem to help, so does anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks
