XSLT how to check if element exist in array

Question

XML:

                    </WorkingTime>      
                    <WorkingTime>
                        <FromTime>20:00</FromTime>
                        <ToTime>22:00</ToTime>
                        <Name>Vaje aaaaaa</Name>
                        <Owner>Marko</Owner>
                        <Category>
                            <School Professor="222" Room="11" Subject="881"/>
                        </Category>
                    </WorkingTime>                      
                </WorkingTimes>
            </Day>
            <Day>
                <Date>2013-05-14</Date>
                <DayType>2</DayType>
                ...
            </Day>

XSLT:

<xsl:for-each select="Calendar/Days/Day">   
    <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="DayType = 1">
            <xsl:variable name="vTransfers" select="child::*/WorkingTime"/>

Can I somehow check this variable vTransfers if 08:00 exist in FromTime. I do not want to loop it beacuse I need to place it in correct TD row. And I am now in this TD and i woul like to check if 08:00 exist in FromTime in this array.

I try something like

<xsl:when test="contains($vTransfers/ToTime, '08:00')">
                        <xsl:text>IN</xsl:text>
                    </xsl:when>
                    <xsl:otherwise>                                     
                        <xsl:text>OUT</xsl:text>
                    </xsl:otherwise>

but always takes just firs one and not check whole array.

You always must include the output HTML you want to see. (Also - since you've deleted your previous question: Did you manage to solve it yourself?) — Tomalak

If you pass a node-set to contains, it is converted to a string. This means that only string value of the first node is taken. Try something like that:

<xsl:when test="$vTransfers[contains(ToTime, '08:00')]">

This should work, too:

<xsl:when test="WorkingTimes/WorkingTime/ToTime = '08:00'">

Easier: <xsl:when test="$vTransfers[ToTime = '08:00']"> - contains() is redundant here.
