I'm afraid not, in that case you'll have to use an xsl:if or xsl:choose
block:
<input>
<xsl:attribute name="name">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@gunk"><xsl:value-of
select="@gunk"/></xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>default</xsl:default>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:if test="@foo">
<xsl:attribute name="bar"><xsl:value-of
select="@foo"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
</input>
Note that if the attribute is numeric than Dimitre's trick of multiplying
the value by not(@attr) or adding the value would also work.
