Thanks once again Charlie, I got the desired HTML to show up in Stylus - yes; the attribute worked! But Saxon still continues to give me the same error message: "Cannot write an attribute when there is no open start tag" Mike, as per your suggestion i did move my xsl:if above the xsl:value. Inspite of that............. So here is the XSL which works in Stylus but not in Saxon! <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:if test="@SELECTED='Y'"> <xsl:attribute name="SELECTED"><xsl:value-of select="."/></xsl:attribute> </xsl:if> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </xsl:element> </xsl:for-each> </select> ----- Original Message ----- From: Charlie Cox <xmldev@xxxxxxxxx> To: <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, March 24, 2000 8:14 AM Subject: Re: xsl loop for display in drop-down box > xsl is case sensitive.
