RE: onChange does not funtioning?

It's a small point but I think Michael meant bgcolor and not bgColor ;)

bgColor will work in HTML but is incorrect in XHTML.

As far as XSLT is concerned, onChange is just an attribute to be added to
the generated HTML (or ASP) output document. It's no different from
generating an attribute called bgColor or fzSackTheLawyers. If the output
document doesn't behave the way you want, then you need to fix it. That
doesn't require a change in the way the document is generated.

Or perhaps you are imagining that somehow the onChange action should be
activated during the XSLT transformation? If so, you're confused about the
processing model.
