Re: Substituting XSL Variable in HTML Tags

Greetings:

The easiest way to get flamed on this list is to post a question about a
pre-XSLT stylesheet language issued by Microsoft before any standard was
released. The xsl:eval element is a throwback to another time. I strongly
recommend you use standard variable syntax. You can find an answer for
changing row colors here:

You should also familiarize yourself with the basic XSLT standard, here:
