[xsl] Correct way to test for no match

From: Dan Vint <dvint@-----.--->

I have a structure where I need to match values between w element 
attributes. These elements are in different parst of the document. Problem 
I'm trying to solve is when there is a typo in one of the attributes and 
there is no match. I thought this would do it, but it's not
<xsl:when 
test="ancestor::ipb/figure/subfig/graphic[@boardno=$sht_num]/@boardno">

same with this

<xsl:when 
test="ancestor::ipb/figure/subfig/graphic[@boardno=$sht_num]/@boardno = 
''">

Any suggestions?

Here is the doc structure:

<ipb>
   <figure>
     <subfig>
       <graphic boardno='a'/>
     </subfig>
   </figure>
   <table>
     <row>
       <entry><ipbilus><xref shtref='b'/></ipbilus>
       </entry>
     </row>
   </table>
</ipb>

$sht_num is set to xref/@shtref so b never finds a on graphic
