[xsl] Generic Dropdown template

[atulss@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,

As in my application, there are many dropdowns for which data may come from XML,
(eg. to display date - day, month, year or grade of user etc.)
I would like to create new generic template for displaying dropdown on the screen. 

but this doesn't work. Can anybody help me.
thanks in advance.

	<xsl:template name="GetDropDown">		
		<xsl:param name="xpath"/>		
		<xsl:param name="option"/>		
		<xsl:param name="id"/>		
		<xsl:param name="sel"/>		
		<xsl:for-each select="$xpath">			
			<option>				
				<xsl:attribute name="value">					
					<xsl:value-of select="ID"/>				
				</xsl:attribute>				
				<xsl:if test="($id) = ($sel)">					
					<xsl:attribute name="selected">
							true
					</xsl:attribute>				
				</xsl:if>				
				<xsl:value-of select="$option"></xsl:value-of>			
			</option>		
		</xsl:for-each>	
	</xsl:template>	

My XML look like, where User_info element stores id for the selected option.

<ROOT>
	<USER_INFO>
		<USER_NAME>Kevin Smith</USER_NAME>
		<GRADE>2</GRADE>
	</USER_INFO>
	
	<GRADE>
		<ROW num="1"> <M>Grade 1</M><ID>1</ID> </ROW>
		<ROW num="2"> <M>Grade 2</M><ID>2</ID> </ROW>
		<ROW num="3"> <M>Grade 3</M><ID>3</ID> </ROW>
		<ROW num="4"> <M>Grade 4</M><ID>4</ID> </ROW>
		<ROW num="5"> <M>Grade 5</M><ID>5</ID> </ROW>
	</GRADE>
</ROOT>	

regards,
