[xsl] How to assign node value to html attribute

["Sunny Bro" <sbv_chris at hotmail dot com>]

Hello,
I'm working on a small project for my university and I'd like to use xml and 
xsl in my servlets so that the presentation logic can be seperated from the 
business logic.  When I tried to assign the value of a node to an html 
attribute (bgcolor) using xsl, I ran into problems.

<td bgcolor= ' <xsl:value-of select="TBD1/TBDC1" 
disable-output-escaping="yes" '> foo </td>

The parser didn't like this and gave the following SAXParseException:
The value of attribute "bgcolor" must not contain the '<' character.

As this isn't allowed is there a workaround so that i could still make use 
of the color values in the dom or do i have to adulterate the dom by 
embedding the required html at the servlet level.

Thanks a ton,
Sunny.
