Hi Matthias,

My apologies - that's me remembering the tags incorrectly: it's using
<xsl:attribute name="class"> </xsl:attribute>, and the actual XSL reads as:

<TR><xsl:if test="ORDERSTATUS='Completed'"> <xsl:attribute-value
name="class">trCompleted</xsl:attribute> </xsl:if>

Try,

<tr>

<xsl:if test="ORDERSTATUS = 'Completed'}>

<xsl:attribute name="class">trCompleted</xsl:attribute>

</xsl:if>

</tr>

(you can use either tr or TR if this is HTML; the element names are "ASCII Case-Insensitive")

Then look out the output HTML to see if the class attribute is being generated.

The XSLT here says, if there's a subelement of the node being processed which has the string value "Completed" (case-sensitive, so not COMPLETED or completed), then we want to add the attribute.
