In the template rule for <SendTaxRequest>,
<element name="TaxOutOfCountryFlag" type="ebsidicString" totalDigits="1"
<xsl:attribute name="value">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="TaxOutOfCountryFlag">Y</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>N</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
</element>
Or in XSLT 2.0 / XPath 2.0
<element name="TaxOutOfCountryFlag" type="ebsidicString" totalDigits="1"
value="{if (TaxOutOfCountryFlag) then 'Y' else 'N'}"/>
Incidentally, EBCDIC is usually spelt EBCDIC....

> I am facing a problem in finding a way to solve the following problem.

> Problem Description:
> -----------------------
> I have an optional tag with no value associated in the XML
> document. Only the existence & non existence of the tag matters
> E.g:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <SendTaxRequest>
> <TransactionNumber>12345</TransactionNumber>
> <BusinessDayDate>20020106</BusinessDayDate>
> <TaxOutOfCountryFlag/>
> </SendTaxRequest>
>
> The Tag "TaxOutOfCountryFlag" is an optional tag.
>
> The requirement is that I have to transform the above XML
> document to another XML document considering the existence of
> the optional field "TaxOutOfCountryFlag". like following..
>
> 1. If "TaxOutOfCountryFlag" element exists the result should be....
> <?xml version="1.0"?>
> <SendTaxRequest>
> <element name="TransactionIdentifier"
> type="ebsidicString" totalDigits="4" value="TX03"/>
> <element name="BusinessDayDate" type="date"
> totalDigits="8" value="20020106"/>
> <element name="TaxOutOfCountryFlag"
> type="ebsidicString" totalDigits="1" value="Y"/>
> </SendTaxRequest>
>
> 2. If "TaxOutOfCountryFlag" element does not exist the result
> should be....
> <?xml version="1.0"?>
> <SendTaxRequest>
> <element name="TransactionIdentifier"
> type="ebsidicString" totalDigits="4" value="TX03"/>
> <element name="BusinessDayDate" type="date"
> totalDigits="8" value="20020106"/>
> <element name="TaxOutOfCountryFlag"
> type="ebsidicString" totalDigits="1" value="N"/>
> </SendTaxRequest>
>
> Note: the "value" attribute of "TaxOutOfCountryFlag" is changing.
>
> Please suggest me how can I accomplish this problem. Any help
