XSL question

[Kntx]

so let's say i have some xml

<root>
<node1 />
<node2 />
<node4 />
</root>

and i have an xsl that transforms it to html

and my xsl handles an element called <node3> although it doesn't exist...

is there a way using xsl to determine if the source xml contains or doesn't contain a specific element???

so you could do something like...

<xsl:if test="doesElementExist("node3")>
<!-- some html and xsl -->
</xsl:if>

<xsl:if test="/root/node3">
</xsl:if>
