I have a situation where I need to write either "<div ...>" or "</div>" depending on a variable (node count / position). If I just put in a couple of IF statements I get an error saying the tag has not been closed. So, is there a "trick" way of doing what I need?
You could also use an empty <xsl:comment /> or even change the output from XML to HTML. But perhaps using the <xsl:comment /> trick is more safe since changing the output to HTML could potentially break other things in the code dependent on the context.

You might want to try using the CDATA escaping like this:
Then you shouldn't get any errors when rendering the code.

Thanks Kim - that seems to be working great!
