You probably want to be setting the 'checked' attribute to 'checked'
rather than 'true'.  The SGML/XHTML/XSLT rules about attributes with
no values (e.g. <input checked />) is that the value is taken as being
the name of the attribute.  So use:

  <input name="{name}" type="{type}" value="{value}">
     <xsl:if test="checked = 'true'">
        <xsl:attribute name="checked">checked</xsl:attribute>
     </xsl:if>
  </input>

Cheers,

Jeni
