string comparison between two strings in xslt

I am using below code for checking whether two strings content are equal or not but it is not working as i am using watson explorer id 

<xsl:variable name="str1" select="./td[4]"/>
<xsl:variable name="str2" select="./td[2]"/>

<xsl:if test="$str1 = $str2">
  true 
</xsl:if>

please tell me how to find using xslt whether the content of two strings are equal or not as i was trying by using compare(str1,str2) but it was also not working for me as i am using xslt 1.0 verson
