	Because the attribute is already the current node, the template
needs to be written as

	<xsl:template match="@colr">
	 <xsl:attribute name="STYLE">color:
	   <xsl:choose>
	        <xsl:when test=".[.='2']">white</xsl:when >
	        <xsl:when test=".[.='0']">green</xsl:when >
	        <xsl:otherwise >black</xsl:otherwise >
	   </xsl:choose>
	   </xsl:attribute>
	</xsl:template>
