I have a simple question that Im trying to solve: This is a FAQ <xsl-if test="some condition"> <font color="red"> Hello 1</font> </xsl-if> <xsl-if test="some other condition"> <font color="blue"> Hello 1</font> </xsl-if> Put the conditional around the value assigned, not around the assignment: <xsl:variable name="use-color"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="some condition">red</xsl:when> <xsl:when test="other condition">blue</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>green</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable> ... <font color="$use-color">Hello</font> Some caveats when testing result-tree-fragment variables, they always test true() until you cast them to the data type that you need. I hope this helps. ......................... Ken -- World-wide on-site corporate, govt. & user group XML/XSL training. G.
