Ok, I have come up with the following code but it does
not like it.  Does not like the fo:block in the
choose.  I tried to add the <span> </span> block but
it didn't like that either.  Said it was no allowed
there.  Ideas?



<xsl:template name="detail">
	<xsl:for-each select="/invoice/detail/row">
		<fo:block font-size="8pt" >
			<xsl:apply-templates select="transaction_detail"/>
<xsl:value-of select="amount"/>
		</fo:block>
	</xsl:for-each> 
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="transaction_detail">
	<xsl:choose>
		<xsl:when
test="/invoice/detail/row/format_control='C1'"/>
			<fo:block color="blue">
				<xsl:value-of select="."/>
			</fo:block>
		</xsl:when>
		<xsl:when
test="/invoice/detail/row/format_control='U1'"/>
			<fo:block font-style="underline">
				<xsl:value-of select="."/>
			</fo:block>
		</xsl:choose>
	</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
