XSLTT IF on tag titles

Question

Hello, everyone

I'm working on a XSLT file and I've hit a snag. I have a case where one tag can have two different subtags. Example:

<TAG>
 <PERSON1/>
<TAG>

and

<TAG>
 <PERSON2/>
</TAG>

Is there a way to write an XLS:IF statement on the tag to see if it's named "PERSON1" or "PERSON2", since PERSON1 and PERSON2 need to be handled in entirely different manners?

Thanks.

I don't think you need an if, you could use xsl:apply-templates, so something like this:

<xsl:template match="TAG">
    <!-- Code ... -->
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="PERSON1">
    <!-- Something goes here -->
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="PERSON2">
    <!-- Something else goes here -->
</xsl:template>
