Thanks Charlie. But like you said Stylus does not pick the attribute and Saxon gives me the following error: "Cannot write an attribute when there is no open start tag" Like you mentioned i inserted the <FIRST Selected="Y">Nothing</FIRST> tag in my XML. And then i used the following XSL: <select name="FIRST"> <xsl:variable name="tmp"><xsl:value-of select="FIRST/@SELECTED"/></xsl:variable> <xsl:for-each select="FIRST"> <xsl:element name="option"> <xsl:value-of select="."/> <xsl:if test="@SELECTED='Y'"> <xsl:attribute name="SELECTED"><xsl:value-of select="($tmp)"/></xsl:attribute> </xsl:if> </xsl:element> </xsl:for-each> </select> I get my drop down without a blank but the selected element is not displayed first in the drop-down. Any more ideas????
