Param a node string

[Jawa]

Hope someone can assist.

I am going after a node in xml:

Live=GetContent.XmlFeed[1].contentdata.XmlChildren[1].live.XmlText;

Then I am testing on it:

<cfif Live eq &quot;yes&quot;
#attributes.Data#
<cfelse>
Sorry this page is currently not available.
</cfif>

My problem is that the node does not always exist and every way I try to param it I get an error. Does anyone know if I can param out GetContent.XmlFeed[1].contentdata.XmlChildren[1].live.XmlText;?

Thanks!!
